DEATH VALLEY the Valley of Fire & Hoover Dam
April 1-7, 2015

Dear Friends:

Join us!... as we explore California’s desert paradise, Death Valley and the Valley of Fire, Nevada's premiere state park, on a delightful spring adventure!

A land of majestic vistas and every-changing colors, Death Valley has the lowest point in the United States at 282 feet below sea level and snow-capped peaks which soar more than 11,000 feet overhead. It offers the pristine tranquility of wilderness and expansive scenery, as well as an historic oasis.

History beckons at every corner, allowing us to relive the days of the 49’er gold seekers and prospectors. See historic Scotty's Castle and an immense petroglyph field. Tour Hoover Dam and peer at the Colorado River far below! Led by Dr. Andre Potochnik, an excellent geologist and naturalist, enjoy the great beauty of these intriguing landscapes while you learn about adaptations of plants and animals to life in the desert, the geologic heritage, and man’s attempts at making a living in this vast desert paradise!

Join us this spring! And discover awesome vistas, wildflowers, a lunar eclipse & more!

Sincerely,

Robert P. Nansen
