Death Valley Scenic Byway
Father Crowley Point, CA
Encompassing views of the Panamint Valley, Rainbow Canyon, the Panamint Mountain Range, and Telescope Peak, Father Crowley Point is a must-stop point on the Byway. The lookout was named after a Catholic Priest who ministered in the area in the 1930s, and who was said to make frequent stops at the overlook.
Be sure to make this lookout a stopping place during your drive through Death Valley. This view, which inspired reverence in an important religious leader, will also demonstrate the beautiful complexity and rugged balance of this impressive desert.
