Thanks everyone for the messages!

What a beautiful video! Thanks for sharing. When you drove through Dedeckera Canyon 2:15 of the video, is your sway bar disconnected? I haven't offroad in my Jeep yet. We're going to Death Valley end of April.

Yes, my sway bar was disconnected. Dedeckera is really super easy terrain-wise... it's the high canyon walls that are awesome. There's one narrow part that just fits the jeep through. I think next time I'd rather do it in reverse and exit the canyon into the Dunes.

I've been to Death Valley many times camping and exploring but would really love to do an adventure like this.
Any way you could PM me the details of roads and directions you took?
Looked like it was a bit cold most of those days.
Loved the poses at each of the stops - great family fun.
Thanks so much for letting us share in your family camping trip.

I have the GPS tracks (for the 3 days) and I'll post them up on my blog when I have a moment (next couple of days).

As for the temperature, it was totally fine. Night time low was 0C (32F) and daytime high was 37C (98.6F). It's probably warmer now ;-)

This looks AWESOME!!! I cant wait to do this with my future kids one day! You have a beautiful family!:yup: :thumb:

Thanks! I am a lucky guy froshizzle!

Cheers! ~ Paul.

They are the first set listed under "Death Valley - North End of Park". There's 3 days. Grab them all and then open them directly in Google Maps.

Hope this helps with future planning!

Cheers! ~ Paul.
