Roadways: Highway 190

California State Route 190, Death Valley National Park, CA
Canon Power Shot SX40 HS, f/4, ISO: 100
There are roads and then there are roads.  Some drives are just special.  Highway 1 in Big Sur and  Highway 12 in Utah are probably my two favorite stretches of road, at least that I've driven over the last few years.  Eastern California has a couple of gems.  Highway 395 runs North/South along the back side of the Sierras and Highway 190 runs through Death Valley.

This shot is Highway 190 as it descends 5000 feet from Towne Pass to Stovepipe Wells.  Those clouds in the sky actually dropped a bit of rain on this particular day.
