Back from the desert

I came back from the desert a little earlier than I had planned due to the weather. I woke up in the place I camped out by the Racetrack in Death Valley and was ready to go on down the Lippincott road into Saline Valley to get to the hot springs. I listened to the radio weather forecast and changed my plan. Low snow levels and cold weather kind of made the reason for my trip, to get out of the cold weather, moot. But it was great while it lasted. The first picture was taken at Hole in the Wall. Very cool rock formations up there.

I tried to go to Corridor canyon but don't think I walked far enough. That's where the second picture was taken... below Ubehebe Mine. The Inyo mountains are the ones with the snow on them. Saline Valley is at the foot of those mountains.

I was a little disappointed at not getting to the hot springs but I might have to go back when the main roads are open this spring.
