lowest point in north america. 282 feet below sea level. telescope peak in the background is over 11000 feet high.

i found a picnic bench to heat up a little bit of food and do some van maintenance. i had to replace a headlight (again! it's a recurring problem). it was the first time i used my backpacking stove. yay!! i had instant coffee in my 'subway' mug, a heated can of beans and a can of salmon. filled me real good.
