Artists Palette

11 miles south of Furnace Creek, off Badwater Road, Death Valley National Park, CA

Shutterbugs and fledgling art students will want to visit these unexpectedly colorful volcanic and sedimentary hills. Be prepared for the kids to ask lots of questions about color, rock formations and Death Valley itself. Schedule your trip for the afternoon for the best photos. The winding, 9-mile road is one way, so leave trailers and cars longer than 25 feet at home. Drive starts from Badwater Road. Free.
