Dit berichtje haalde ik van NPS.GOV/deva/index :
California Highway 190 between Furnace Creek and Death Valley Junction is now open to through traffic.
As necessary, pilot cars will be running around the clock to guide vehicles through the heavy construction still taking place on the highway. Traffic may be delayed up to 30 minutes.
While the reconstruction of the highway continues, Zabriskie Point, the Dante's View Road, the Twenty Mule Team Canyon Road, and the Hole-in-the-Wall Road will remain closed. Echo Canyon Road is now open. Zabriskie Point, in particular, is the staging area for the heavy equipment being used in the road construction. All access to Zabriskie Point by foot or by vehicle is restricted.
Please see the Death Valley Morning Report for any temporary road closures, and our Road Conditions page for specific road information.
Wat de temperatuur betreft het is er op dit moment overdag al boven de 100F (38C).
groeten, Hans
