Help my and the wife plan a trip out west!

I hope you're joking. That is the grand stands. If you keep going down the road to the end of the dried lake (right side in photo) and walk the lake bed to the hills on the other side of the lake there are rocks there moving around, having a party and leaving trails everywhere. That is an annoyingly rough road to drive and not see anything. At least you would have seen tea kettle junction.

Yeah I knew where they were. There was a ton of people on the other side.

That road sucked but we came up lippencott so we only did it once.

We really want to go there, but I think it would be REALLY out of the way. How far would the above photo be from Vegas?

It's probably 60 or so miles from Beatty, NV.

Did you go to the other side of that formation they might have moved over there.

Secret surfing spot!

Seems like Vegas is only 2.5 hours away from Death Valley, definitely doable. What am I looking at weather wise around new years Death Valley?
