Headed west from Zabriskie Point and did half the Badlands loop before joining up with the Gower Gulch trail and after a daunting transit across the lower slopes of Manly Beacon we took the gentle Golden Canyon trail down to 100 ft below sea level. Made easier by having two vehicles and dropping one off at our destination thus allowing us to do a one way 4 to 5 mile hike though these amazing geological formations.
