Here is something completely different from my last entry, but I think it has a lot of heart. And who wouldn't click that hot tub thumbnail? https://steemit.com/photography/@creationofcare/ruins-on-waucoba-rd-death-valley-thanksgiving-2

I like your pictures and your post :-D!!! Really interesting!!!

Thanks!

You're welcome :-)))

This is quite a unique environment @creationofcare. Your photos are very interesting as well. Feels like a great place to film a movie. There's something that's kind of eerie about it. I'm diggin' this post man. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, @axios! I love Death Valley, it is certainly harsh yet gorgeous, and full of ghostly ruins. We drove 50 miles off the pavement to attend this Thanksgiving weekend at the hot springs. Not everyone made it. One person rented a car, and the washboard roads dropped the radiator to the ground, stranding her!

That sounds intense! Sounds like the real deal out there. Never been to the death valley but damn, props for being quite the adventurer!

"Mad Props" ;) like the photo hehe.

If you ever decide to visit DV, I recommend doing it during the spring wildflower season. It becomes magically transformed!

Quite an exposition on such an abandoned place. In case of need you can even make yourself a shelter. And some thousand or more years later if the archelogists still exist as a profession they'll guess about this reckless civilization that left this behind.

It always kind of shocks me to see how much stuff mining operations just left lying around when they abandoned the sites.
