Rhyolite, NV/Titus Canyon/Ubehebe Crater - Death Valley National Park

 Carly Kovacik and myself checked out the ruins of Rhyolite, NV during early February. Rhyolite is a ghost town located between Death Valley and Beatty, NV...I've explored it once before during 2015. Not much has changed, but it is a fun escape back into history and the Wild West. After Rhyolite we drove through Titus Canyon, and then after descending back into Death Valley, we headed north to Ubehebe Crater. We descended hundreds of feet into the bowels of the maar, and then slogged our way back up to the crater rim. That was followed by a scenic trip around the periphery of the crater, as well as a few sub-craters. 

Google map location for Rhyolite, NV is here; Titus Canyon here; Ubehebe Crater here.
