No National Park, but there is basically a plaque on the ground showing the borders. As a kid, I did the request 1 arm or leg in each state. |

Spring in Death Valley is amazing. Some of my best camping ever was in some of the little valleys not 20 miles from the main ranger station.
There's a web site called Google. That's place named after a number. |

Agreed. There is a mystique about the place that is positively eerie. And the alluvial fans are second to none. |

We have a Vietnamese Restaurant downtown called 205, which, coincidentally, is also the address (205 2nd Ave). Or maybe it's not a coincidence...
