The adventure begins!  Although I didn't know it at the time, Death Valley would be stop #1 on our quest to hit all 59 National Parks.  We visited DV in April 2017 on our trailer's inaugural voyage.  Death Valley has a desolate beauty that has to be experienced to be truly appreciated.  We marveled at the fact that, at times, we were likely the only people within a square mile or more of our location.  That is not something that one can often claim.
