Timely post Bill, helpful info to wade through for our upcoming visit. We had originally planned for Feb. 3 as well.
- Go Niners - Now postponed for a week or so due to babysitting requests & Grandkid’s BDay parties. Have not been to Death Valley since our early married years & can’t wait for a FWC visit. Looking forward to the stars, the quiet, the uniqueness. Might run into you during the Walker 395 corridor visit this Fall, enjoy.

Don't expect to encounter much quiet this time of year in DVNP.....certainly not around the developed areas.

 

You may wish to seek out your desert quiet enroute and while leaving the area.

 

Have a good trip!

Thanks David. Yeah, that does make sense considering the inherent seasonality of DVNP.
We will extend the perimeter a bit plus my wife wants to visit Alabama Hills. Happy Trails ...

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I am going to follow Ski3pins advice and not try to jam to much in.

Have a great time! Sure wish we were heading that way. We love the place.

 We will be down there in a couple of weeks after you get there. You most likely won't see us, because we will only slip into furnace creek for gas, groceries & liquid refreshments (maybe a shower) then out into the remote places. We rarely see anyone after we get a mile or so off of pavement.
