The Night of the Triangle

A 35 day, cross-country trek that challenged endurance levels of a trio of die-hard adventurers-a 350 mile sojourn across the notorious badlands of Death Valley, and beyond, southward to the fetid shores of the Salton Sink (Sea). After forging their way across the desert-parched backcountry of Death Valley, real-life survival became a reality as the threesome continued southward beyond Death Valley, across seldom-mentioned desert lands: The Wingate Wash, the Owlshead and Avawatz Moutains, the scraggly sand dune country beyond Zzyzx, the Devil's Playground, the God-forsaken Bristol Dry Lake Bed, the Pinto Mountains, and finally the bone-strewn shoreline of the Salton Sea. Thrity-five days, 350 miles, almost a death-wish were it not for the overpowering will to live, to survive.
