- Furnace Creek looking to the south. While DV is definitely not for everyone,I have always been fascinated by the Death Valley landscape and there is no better way to see it but from a plane! - by S B J

- 932 in the early morning.After 20 consecutive years,the Park service felt its against regulations for a tent next to your plane, thus this was my last plane camping in (at L06) DV.Have flown through and driven to DV since,but its not the same. - by S B J

- 932 in the early morning light.My last camping at Furnace Ck due to Park Service change to no airport camping.Perhaps in the past it was no big deal and not enforced? I guess all good things come to an end... - by S B J

- Another view of Furnace creek. This is around 1994. Late fall is a fantastic time to fly to DV. Spring can be good or bad and summer being unbearable. - by S B J
