Over the weekend My family went to Death Valley. We started driving on Friday at 5:00 we drove for 5 hours but it wasn't boring because we had music and my brother and I brought games to play. We stop at a motel for the night since we had 4 more hours of driving left that we would cover the next day. On Saturday morning we headed out at 6:00 and we began to see some canyons and rock formations. When we got to death valley then we first started on a hike in the sand dunes it was so fun and hot it was fun to walk up the dune and have a small wall of sand slipping down were you are climbing. the next place after the dunes we went to a place were these small fish lived in a river in he desert called Pupfish. We went climbing on these giant mountains of dry soft mud, then we went to these sharp salt infested fields that were very fragile. we also went walking under sea level, Finally we set up camp at a place all alone with no other campers it was peisful and beutiful the next day we went home.
