03-11-16 Death Valley Day 7

Our last day of riding had us packing up at the hot springs and heading toward base camp. The original plan was to ride over Hunter Mountain, but the wind was too strong and we opted to head straight back to Panamint Springs. We weren't quite done yet, so Dru, Derek, and I naviguessed our way to Cerro Gordo to check out the old silver mining town - such a cool thing to see.
