BLM  -- "this land is your land" -- apologies to Woodie.  Check with the
local BLM office for updates and local regs.

Or Check the various Delorme or Benchmark Maps EG: "Nevada Road and
Recreation Atlas" ISBN 0-929591-81-X  19.95USD at "sporting goods, guns,

I highly recommend the Amargosa Opera House and the unique ballet there.  At
Death Valley Junction.

Check local road conditions. SR 190 out of Furnace Creek towards NV is
closed.  www.nps.gov/deva will show the pix.

Longstreet Inn and Casino has pretty good breakfasts, reasonable lodging,
just north of DV Jct.
