Truck Camping in Death Valley | Titus Canyon & Racetrack Playa

This week we hit the trail with the Overland Bound Las Vegas group!
It was a jam packed trip - Titus Canyon Trail, Racetrack Playa, Teakettle junction, Truck camping, Tembo Tusk camp pizza, craters and much more!

Titus Canyon is a 27 mile long ONE WAY road, starting off Hwy 374 (down the road from Beatty, NV.) It took about 2 hours to get to the Trail head from Las Vegas. Get gas in Beatty because its one of the last options to get gas in the area after you get through Titus Canyon! On the trail, there are a bunch of climbs, descends, washboards, a few holes but nothing major. You can easily run the road with a 2wd rig.

Titus Canyon Trail Starting coordinates: 36.859200, -116.846494
Teakettle Junction (on the way to Racetrack Playa): 36.760456, -117.541609
RaceTrack Playa: 36.682666, -117.572328
Campsite coordinates (Past Racetrack Playa in an area where you are allowed to camp): 36.637492, -117.574068
Ubehebe Crater: 37.014393, -117.453789

Note: you are not allowed to camp anywhere near RaceTrack Playa.

Let me know if you have any questions about the trip! It was a full day of exploring and pretty tiring if you do Titus and go all the way through to our camp spot for the night. The road on the way to the Playa is full of washboards and the area we ended up camping at for the night had a few campers there already so the sooner you get there the better!

Thanks for watching and supporting the channel !

I do videos every week on anything outdoors - truck camping, hiking, fishing, gear reviews, trail runs, etc!
