Death Valley National Park is a 5,262 square mile area in southern California that has been designated as a protected space under the Antiquities Act, and therefore is restricted from development by the federal government of the United States.  Death Valley received this designation due to it's unique ecosystem and weather patterns, representing one of the harshest climates in the world.  While it is up for debate as to the validity of the world's hottest air temperature being recorded at Furnace Creek in Death Valley due to other areas also claiming temperatures this high, there is a continual and ongoing setting of heat records every year within the space.  While one might assume that such an extreme climate would make all life impossible, this is very much not the case.  Tours of Death Valley show many areas teeming with life in the form of plants and animal species that have adapted to extreme heat and water scarcity.  Other areas of Death Valley show large expanses of completely desolate terrain where no plants or animals can be found for miles, illustrating the different types of landscape all found within the region.  Touring Death Valley is never disappointing, as for many people it represents a landscape that is otherworldly and has never been witnessed before. If you are planning a tour of Death Valley, it is best to allow it to a professional company like Bindlestiff Tours in order to assure not only your safety but also that you see all of the interesting areas that the space has to offer.  For much of the year the Death Valley tours are considered too hot to actually do much extended exploring, so we consider this particular tour to be less of an adventure tour and more of a sightseeing tour.  The summertime especially

Located only a few hours drive from Las Vegas is Death Valley National Park, one of the hottest and most unique places on earth.  When it comes to heat, it is not just an expression to say that it is one of the hottest places on earth, it actually is.  In Furnace Creek the hottest temperature every recorded using modern equipment was registered, and although there are other areas who also make a claim to have the hottest temperature, Death Valley is always on the list.  It has also set numerous other records for most consecutive days above 110 degrees and other temperature related milestones.  Even though the area is extraordinarily hot, there are a surprising number of plants and animals that make the area home.  These unique species have adapted to the heat and lack of water, and actually have found ways to thrive.  Death Valley is by no means desolate, and actually does present some completely unique sightseeing opportunities. In the summer, tours to the area that would typically be called "adventure tours" become "sightseeing tours." This is simply because the extreme heat in the summer prohibits visitors from being outside too long exploring and hiking.  The best way to approach Death Valley in the summer is to drive to the specific points of interest and then spend a short amount of time photographing or looking over the area before returning to the air conditioned vehicle.  Nobody wants their trip to be unpleasant, and nothing can ruin a trip more quickly than getting overheated. All of these reasons are pointing to the fact that you should allow a tour group like Bindlestiff Tours provide you with your Death Valley tour.  We understand the area and can move from point of interest to point of interest without spending too
