Today is day 4 of the trip titled March 2016 - Reverse Hot Springs.
I drove 109 miles today, for a total of 538 miles so far.
I started the day at Tecopa Hot Springs. I ended the day at Stovepipe Wells Campground.
- Here is a short description of the day:
- Death Valley
Spring flowers, Dante’s View, water in the Amargosa River, Borax Museum

What a difference a day (of the week) makes. This is Friday, so the park is very crowded, twelve car backups behind some lumbering RV are the norm. Also, it is really hot! 91° on April Fool's Day!
Having time to explore today I learned that Texas Springs is the campground I want next time. It was totally full at 2pm today, but some non-weekend, non-warm night in a future off season I will go there.
The other Big Thing that has changed in seven weeks is that suddenly Stovepipe Wells has really strong 3G phone bars for ATT, a big improvement over "No Service" last time. Change comes to the desert!
