I loved your Death Valley post. I've only been there once in the summer and camped at Wildrose, which I recommend (no fee, no RVs, out of the way). I forgot to bring tent stakes and of course the winds were over 30 mph that night. Piling big rocks at the corners of the the tent inside and out actually worked out. I also ended up driving down a progressively washed-out road in a Passat only to find a bunch of cones and the backside of a "road closed" sign when I made it through to the other end. Exploring! However, it can be really dangerous out in the desert. Case in point, some German tourists that met an unhappy end in the 1990s when they got lost in a rental minivan: http://www.otherhand.org/home-page/search-and-rescue/the-hunt-for-the-death-valley-germans/

I probably wouldn't have driven down it if I knew it was closed! Only the exit end had a "road closed" sign  . I would have backed up if it got risky, dying in the desert isn't something I'm keen on.
