Hiking McElvoy Canyon: True Desert Oasis With a Historic Beekeepers' Cabin

Welcome to Wonderhussy Adventure #722
Date of adventure: 4/21/23

Saline Valley is one of the most remote, inhospitable areas in all of Death Valley...but if you know where to look, you can find water -- and even waterfalls! In this adventure, some friends and I hike up McElvoy canyon...which is full of surprises, including a fern grotto with waterfalls, and a really cool old cabin!

It is always a treat when our girl lets a few men tag along! You are too kind and generous Sarah Jane.

You had me at "historical" beekeeper cabin... don't believe I've ever heard of such a thing...

I’m always so thankful for our Wonderhussy mid week refresher from this insane world we now live in.

[Hiker_who_Sews]

I'm so glad you record your wanderings and post them for me to enjoy. Thank you!

Your intro music should never change! Every time I hear it, it brings a smile to my face. I’ve been a viewer for a few years. Your full of awesomeness!

Wonderhussy is so genuine and true to herself. It is great to see and watch such a personality.

Unbelievable palm tree oasis but the greenery and water out in the desert how crazy but my ? Why bee's out there🤔 another cool adventure by Sarah and i don't need to leave the comfort of the 🏰

Another great trip. About the bees. Many westerns I’ve read has the hero tell ppl that when they are in the desert and see bees, that they are close to water.

Cos-play is defined as dressing up as a character. Imagine my surprise when I find the wife in the bedroom dressed as Wonderhussy.

What a nice stream and series of waterfalls with a nice homemade cabin. You sure know how to find them. Have more good adventures Wonderhussy.
