Death Valley
Does anyone have a recommendation on entering Death Valley? From the west or east? Thanks in advance!

If you're going to go thru DV from one side to the other, the east side is basically flat. The West side is steep and curvy. So you have to choose to climb the mountains (going west) or go down the mountains and curves (going east).
So it depends on what and where you're going to and coming from. AND, how good of a braking system you have for going down hill vs. possibly having your vehicle overheat climbing the hills.
We came in from the east after leaving the NHRA drag race finals in Las Vegas last year. Our 40' DP pulling the Jeep climbed the hills just fine. The only dislike to it was some of the people coming down hill around the curves going too fast and partially over in our lane at times. There isn't any extra room to mess with.
