Well, after quite some time of lurking we finally bought a Hawk! Drove from Northern MN to Reno for our install on 11/23/09. Went South on 395 stayed first night N. of Bishop somewhere, got down to 16 that night and everything worked great! Carried on to Death Valley, one night at the Furnace "parking lot" campground, one night down by Racetrack, and the last night up in Hanaopah Canyon. We also squeezed a quick drive through Titus Canyon and a quick look see at Dante's Peak. From there is was home bound to St. George, UT area for some quick recon for future trip. Then thje big haul, 291/2 hours straight through home to the North Shore of Lake Superior (with a little winterizing at a rest stop in Nebraska!). Pix to come. I will be back to DV, great spot, lots to do and far from my house!!
Anyway, I wanted to thank all on this forum for sharing, if it were not for the many that share their tales of challenge and success I am not sure I would have gotten what I wanted.
4516 total mile for the first trip, now we have to slow down and look around a bit!
I wish I would have looked at some DV posts before we left, I like the sounds and looks of that Saline Valley and springs, next time...
