Chloride Cliff Road

Situated on the east side of Death Valley National Park, within the Funeral Range Mountains, lies one of the oldest mines in the entire national park as well as the highest point overlooking Badwater Valley. Chloride Cliff Road passes through the remains of Chloride City town site and the grave of James McKay - a man with no history. At the end of this spur trail, a steep and rocky climb offers the traveler a spectacular view of Badwater Basin to the south and Death Valley to the north from over 5000' feet above the valley floor.
