The road to Titus Canyon starts outside the park between Beatty, Nevada and Death Valley National Park. Better put near the state line. It is very straight in the beginning and rises gradually to White Pass. Along the roadway in March and April carpets of wildflowers can be seen. Take your time to explore. The road descends sharply and then rises again to Red Pass. From Red Pass you can see the old mining works at the ghost town of Leadfield. The road dissects Leadfield drops and winds down into Titus Canyon. A sign denotes the actual start of the canyon, then things begin to narrow. Titus Canyon is a deep, narrow gorge cut into the steep face of the Grapevine Mountains. The road snakes through the narrows of the canyon sometime 10 feet wide then breaks out at Klare Springs. Klare Springs can be seen along the road edge. A thick stand of willow and cattails outline the water course edge. Very little water is exposed through the lush brush. There are some interesting petroglyphs just above the spring. Sheep, a rain cloud, and several stacked ballon figures are etched into the outcrop of rock. The road continues to snake through the crooked and beautiful canyon after leaving Klare Springs and emerges at the top of an alluvial fan spreading out into Death Valley.
