<p><a href="http://www.nps.gov/deva/" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/www.nps.gov/deva/?referer=');">Death Valley</a> is just a magnificent place. If you ever get a chance to go visit you really must go and visit for it&#8217;s such a beautiful. We decided to go since my friend who had come on this family trip with us had never gone and while me and my family had been several times before we just had to take her since it&#8217;s a place you have to see at least once in your life. If you are ever going to visit California you really must take some time from your vacation and visit. While it&#8217;s name Death Valley there is really so much life and beauty it&#8217;s so poorly named.</p>

<p>The road to the Devil&#8217;s Race Track is really rough so we have to take a suv or truck that&#8217;s a 4&#215;4 so we took my dad&#8217;s car for this road trip.</p>

<p>Rocks at the Devil&#8217;s Race Track, it&#8217;s called Devil&#8217;s Race Track cause the rocks move, not that they move right in front of you but you can see that there are trails that show the rock&#8217;s movement.</p>

<p>I just wish we had more time there for i would have loved to take much more pictures and see many more places. There just wasn&#8217;t enough time to see everything in less than 24hours that we were there. Have you ever gone? Do you plan to visit one day? I really suggest you do since it&#8217;s so amazingly beautiful.</p>
