Death Valley
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- If you have an extra day to kill, Death Valley is doable as a day trip from Vegas.
- My favorite (shorter) road trip was starting in Las Vegas (leaving immediately - I don't like Vegas, it's just a good place to fly into/out of) - Death Valley - Mono Lake/Yosemite/Bodie - Goldfield for the Clown Motel - Alien Highway/Rac...
- The city is quite close to several very impressive natural areas: Red Rock Canyon (right next door), Zion, Death Valley, and the Grand Canyon.
Cons
- Death Valley 115-20f (46-49c!)
- Most of the days will be 30-40+ Celsius and Death Valley in summers has been known to be deadly to tourists for not understanding how dangerous the temps are there.
- I’d skip Death Valley it’s unbearably too hot hence the name.
- Day 8 – Las Vegas - Death Valley - Bakersfield.
- Camping, Las Vegas, Death Valley, Summer. Not recommended.
