Travel - Adventure Nature Tours : Schedule for Day 8-13
Experience the solitude, expansiveness and beauty of the
California deserts in springtime. |
|
|
The
second half of our California nature tour
takes you from the heart of Death Valley past the
Eastern Sierras, then through the lush Kern River valley
on to the metropolis of Los Angeles.
Take a hike up the smooth wash of mosaic canyon and
admire the polished marble that make up the ground and
walls. Experience the desolation of Rhyolite, a
Death Valley ghost town. Picnic at the base of Mt.
Whitney, the tallest mountain in the continental United
States. Then relax on the banks of the Kern River
as you enjoy the early springtime atmosphere at this
higher elevation. From there this adventure tour
heads through the heart of California agricultural
country back towards Los Angeles, approaching the end of
your exciting two week tour. As in the first half
of the tour you can expect a wide variety of activities,
short hikes and nature walks, a couple of museums and
visitor centers, comfortable hotels and unique small
group adventures adjusted to the interest of each and
every individual group.
