Death Valley in May
We have an opportunity to visit Death Valley National Park in mid-May. Is it likely to be too hot by then?

The link given above to the average weather was monitored at Indian Spring, Nevada at 3133' elevation.
Death Valley is 282' BELOW sea level so temps will be quite different.
According to the national park web site the average high for May is 100 deg and a low of 73 deg.
We were enroute to Oregon one year from Arizona and decided to cut through Death Valley. May 10 it was 112 deg. We stayed without electric and sat outside all night! Left the next morning and returned in November for wonderful temperatures. :)
