It's a basic rule in Death Valley National Park that there is no camping allowed within two miles of any paved road, so the first two miles here are off-limits to campers.

I'm at just over 2000 feet elevation right now. I have 10 miles to ride on this road before reaching my next turn-off about 1000 feet higher, which will be Gold Valley Road.
