About a six hour drive from Los Angeles. I-15 towards Vegas, route 127, then 178 into the park. Stopped by Badwater Salt Flats, the lowest point in the Western Hemisphere. Then around Artists Palatte (purty rocks) and up to Dante’s View, which looks down on the whole valley. Camped [...]

Chandler Boulevard One of the newest bicycle right-of-ways in the city, this stretches across nearly the entire valley floor from one side of boring, ghetto suburbia to the other.
