At the end of our trip back in January we made one last stop at Valley of Fire State Park, about an hour outside of Las Vegas. This is a park I have heard of in the past but had never visited. It is fairly small (by western standards) but is very beautiful and accessible without much effort. Since the […]

Badwater Basin – Death Valley National Park, CA 1-22-17
