Most meals included – (B,L,D) denotes Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Day 1 (Travel Day) (D)
We will meet at our hotel in Las Vegas, NV for an orientation and welcome dinner.

Day 2 (B,L,D)
We will start off the trip with an early departure from Las Vegas, NV. We will drive ~2 hours to Death Valley National Park and stop at a few of the iconic locations mid-morning. Depending on conditions, we will photograph Zabriskie Point, 20 Mule Team Canyon, Artist’s Palette, and Dante’s View.  We will grab lunch in the park and check in to our hotel for the week in Furnace Creek. We will take a short break before heading out to the Mesquite Sand Dunes for sunset, then back to Furnace Creek for dinner.

Day 3 (B,L,D)
On Day 3, we will once again venture into the ever changing Mesquite Sand Dunes for sunrise. We will shoot well into the morning, as the light seemingly gets better and better. We will take a short break mid-morning. We will venture out early afternoon again to the only grove of Joshua Trees found in the park. A long drive, but worth it! It will be a later dinner

Day 4 (B,D)
Day 4 is all about salt flats and playas. We will start off with a sunrise in the Badwater Basin area. The basin encompasses an extremely large area, thankfully, we know where to find the best formations. We’ll shoot well into the morning and visit another location within the basin as well. Another mid-day break around lunch and another early afternoon start, as we will head to the Panamint Valley for sunset. A lesser visited gem in the park, Panamint will have incredible playas with mountain views waiting for us. We will head back after sunset and grab dinner at Furnace Creek once again.

Day 5 (B,L,D)
Our sunrise shoot will take us up into the mountains of Death Valley to an incredible vantage point overlooking Badwater Basin. After sunrise, we will return to the valley and visit the Mesquite Sand Dunes if the light is still good mid-morning. We will take a break after lunch before heading to Cottonball Basin for sunset. The basin features everchanging formations. Another great dinner is in store after sunset back at the hotel.

Day 6 (B)
Our final morning will take us back near Badwater Basin, but this time the focus will be on mud cracks. We will explore a wash with great mountain views overhead. After our morning shoot, we will head back to Las Vegas, NV to say our goodbyes after an amazing workshop!
