Death Valley National Park, CA
Golden Canyon Trail
As you head south, the
next point of interest is Golden Canyon. You'll find a fairly easy trail
which will lead you
through a wide canyon.
Near the start of the
Golden Canyon trail, you may notice a number of eroded washes that open
up into the main canyon. These are almost tiny canyons in and of
themselves, and if you're feeling adventurous, you can climb up into
them. As you can see, the wash I chose became very steep, and the loose,
eroded dirt made the climb a bit precarious.
Here's
your reward for the steep climb. An excellent view of the valley opens
up between the narrow walls of the wash. Amazingly, there are signs of
life here. I found a few wildflowers clinging to the very steep rock.
