Father Crowley Vista Description
A lightly trafficked route, Father Crowley Vista possesses great views without feeling too crowded. Nevertheless, Father Crowley Vista can get rather hot, as it is within the arid environment of Death Valley National Park, and little shade exists throughout its duration. As such, make sure you bring lots of water with you, and that you wear sunscreen and a good hat!
The Father Crowley Vista trail itself is incredibly straightforward. Having arrived at the trailhead, simply follow the path as it makes its way northeast. The trail ends at a cliff face where panoramic views of the surrounding Death Valley National Park landscape can be enjoyed. Once you have had an opportunity to enjoy the sights, simply backtrack your steps towards the trailhead.
