Thanks for your comprehensive video. I was skeptical about visiting Death Valley due to the many road closures but you have given me confidence that there is still plenty to enjoy. Thank you!
I was a bit nervous about how my trip would be with so many road closures but it’s a really unique time to explore the park & I had a blast, I hope you do too!
Thanks for this excellent and comprehensive guide to Death Valley post Hilary. I've been curious as to what to expect. Those star photos and videos were particularly amazing!
The horse flies out there were awful last couple months. I was out in the South Nopah range and they were FEROCIOUS. I guess they spawn like crazy in the standing brackish water
@@andrewgaffney7603 oh wow, thank you for the kind words…it was so much fun to capture the night sky…I’m still learning how to film the stars but I’m having a blast learning.💫
Your visits to Badwater at different times of day and night were great. If you only see it midday, it can seem quite desolate. Zabriskie point at sundown is still my favorite.
I’m going to Death Valley National Park tomorrow😊 I’m coming from the left side and I’m wondering can I drive straight thru to las vegas? Is the roads passable straight thru or is there mud and gravel and rocks in the road? What do you suggest for us. We are coming from Torrance area and plan to visit the park then drive to Vegas for the night.any route suggestions?😊 thanks for the video
Thank you for the kind words, I actually don’t currently use a mic…in-fact I often feel like my audio quality is the weakest part of my videos.🫣 I just film on my iPhone without an external mic while I’m out adventuring but I hope to focus on the sound quality in the future so if you have any good mic recommendations please feel free to share!😉
When I'm in Vegas filming the bands or talking to people I use the zoom F1 mic. When you purchase the mic it also comes with a small external mic that plugs into your phone or tablet
Car camping is not allowed here - for context on this trip the sun went down at just after 6pm and I stayed until 10 pm (although I definitely wish I would have stayed longer!) and then I went back out at 5 am to be at the water while it was still dark out with the stars so I could capture the shift between night & sunrise. I tend to stay at Furnace Creek because it’s only 17 miles away (I’ve enjoyed both the campground & the hotels there over the years). If they allowed car camping here I would have definitely loved it last week the low was 65 degrees & the weather was perfect…but I’ve captured the night sky here in the dead of winter when the peaks were snow-capped and by 10 or 11 at night the wind and sub 30 degree weather made me glad I had a worm hotel room to head to!
