Description
I made the 25-mile drive from the Furnace Creek Visitor Center to Dante's View scenic overlook in the dark of night, a few minutes before civil twilight. This is a road that takes you from 100 feet below sea level to an elevation of of 5700 feet. I wanted to have ample time to photograph the sun rising on the east and then turn around and photograph the Panamint Mountain Range and Badwater basin the scenic overlook, (but that one is the previous image.) Dante's View road can be seen as the winding road climbing up the mountain, and the Spring Mountain Range is the background, with Charleston and Bonanza Peak as the highest points. Thanks for looking.
