STOVEPIPE WELLS

We entered Death Valley, coming from Lone Pine. The Visitor Center in Lone Pine gives you every information you need, even a list of motels in Beatty. We liked to drive through Death Valley by rt 190 to Beatty, Nevada and see the next day the southern part of the valley.

The road winds through the rocky entrance over the Towne Pass (4956ft).

At Stovepipe Wells are a rangerstation, a store, a motel and a campground. (elevation: sealevel).
In the porch of the general store the temperature was 100F in the shadow.

Sand dunes near Stovepipe Wells.

Rt 374 to Beatty, Nevada.

Beatty, Nevada.

Just a simple, but nice motel to spend the night, before exploring more of Death Valley the next day.
