Sounds like Ebie Crater, LOL! After our sunrise photo shoot at the Mustard Canyon and the Borax Mining, we came back to our campsite, had breakfast and got ready for what was going to be a long day to Death Valley Junction, passing through this crater and ultimately ending at the Race Track.
The joy of being a passenger and steady hands, you get to capture drive by photos. The moon setting with the Death Valley Wash in the background.

Ubehebe Crater is a large volcanic crater 600 feet deep and half a mile across. “Ubehebe” (Paiute name) means “big basket”. This name was first applied to the 5,678 ft. Ubehebe Peak, 24 miles southwest of the crater. It was created by a powerful volcanic steam explosion.
Here’s Little Ebie, ooppps, Little Hebe crater.
What an interesting landscape. Looks hot and dry (so good it was you not me)! Can’t wait to see the rest of the trip!
Great shots of an interesting landscape!
Beautiful and impressive scenery. Nice sign!
It sounds like Hawaiian term. Are those small knots at the slope small gravels? I am thinking that maybe there are precious stones there!
Very interesting and great captures of the crater, especially the closer view of the wall.

I missed this post earlier; glad I came back. That was quite a camping trip you had there and these are great pictures. A place I[d never heard of too!
that is one rugged looking place. I don’t think I’ve ever been there or heard of it before. Nice photos.
