Hole in the Wall Backcountry Sites — Death Valley National Park
Reviewed May. 31, 2021

WOW!

This is majestic in every sense of the word!

True solitude if you go far enough back into the wash but know it’s a very sharp gravel road with some good ruts and dips That said we made it ( albeit very slowly) in a stock RAV4 loaded for four days in the desert Man you really come to appreciate how much water weighs when you have to lump it around!

The views of the surrounding mountains are breathtaking

The setting is very peaceful though at night the wind can be truly fierce and unrelenting ( we had to stake and tie down our tents ladder( RTT) as the wind attempted to fold the tent closed on several occasions

We had daily visits from a stunning hummingbird and found what appeared to be bobcat poop in our camp one morning

This was peace and tranquillity in every sense of the word ( at least in my humble opinion) A place to truly decompress from the world stresses

But remember, bring more water then you think you will need cause you seriously and truly on your own out there!
