There is only one REAL Death Valley! 
"It's Saturday Night in Death Valley and here come your Fighting Tigers of LSU."
"It's Saturday Night in Death Valley and here come your Fighting Tigers of LSU."
Not sure how long you going to stay there (or have been there before)...but I highly suggest you stay there until dark, and hope the skys are clear.
Look up at the sky...that alone is worth the trip...all those stars and the milky way...
I've only been there once and only briefly...see below.

I would say Titus Canyon is a must do in Death Valley. I had the most amazing drive down through there. The start of the drive is actually outside of the canyon to the East, and it ends up in Death Valley itself.
See a drive description (not mine) here :http://www.desertusa.com/mag99/may/stories/titus.html
Have fun!

Re: Thats What I'm lookin For
Unfortunately, Titus is closed and looks like it will be for a few more weeks. Click on the Death Valley Morning Report <a href="http://www.nps.gov/deva/" target="_blank">here</a> <br />
I just got back from a quick trip to DV. Echo Canyon makes a very nice drive. Not very technical, just fun. It's a couple of miles SE of Furnace Creek Inn on 190. A little wooden sign at the side of the road marks it. Stay to the right at the fork between 8 and 9 miles into the Canyon. If you want to investigate the left fork, it'll turn you around about 3 miles in unless you want to pound the skids and scuff a bumper:hello:

Titus would have been a good easy one.
Maybe Cottonwood/ Marble Canyon or Grotto Canyon that deadends in an interesting hike(out of Stovepipe wells area),
Hanaupah, Johnson, Galena , Trail Canyons (out of Furnace creek area) When you pay your entrance fee and get your park map the Rangers will be more than happy to help you out.
A good forum site which has a lot of DV locals on it is:

A good book to look for is:
"Death Valley SUV Trails"
