Camping at Trona Pinnacles
Hidden in an area seemingly in the middle of nowhere between the southern tip of the Sierras and Death Valley National Park lie the Trona Pinnacles. Trona Pinnacles are giant spire-like geological formations known as tufas. It is amazing how they tower about the desert floor and it is even more amazing that the area was completely underwater at one time!
