Sounds to me like you will be coming down (south) on NV95 from up north and will enter DVNP from Beatty. Then on to DV Junction and then continue south to Baker. This is very doable. However, I recommend that you stay a couple of nights in Furnace Creek and take several side trips in the toad to Scotty's Castle, Stovepipe Wells (and the sand dunes), Devil's Golf Course, Badwater, and the Racetrack (if you have time). All are very much worth seeing.

As far as going from Baker down thru Mojave Nat Pres.... I've never been that way but have heard the road is in really bad shape and requires lots of driving attention to miss the bad spots. Lake Havasu is a really neat place to stay and explore.

I'm assuming you'll then continue south to the big Q....right.


See ya

I agree with Ron as we did this route a few years ago and it is truly doable. One in the group that went with us was pulling a 38' 5th. wheel and seemed to have no problem.

Enjoy your trip.
