I’ve been to the devils hole! Stuck my finger in the fence surrounding it. They have it enclosed now (for good reason) and there is a bridge that overlooks the cave structure that they live in. The road to get to it is a ton of fun if you have a Baja/offroad vehicle. There’s also one of the wildest park/land buildings I’ve been too which was a super modern building with great AC (necessary) while being in the middle of nowhere and with no paved roads or even paved parking. Just dirt surrounding it. Try to go in the winter/ earrrrrllllyyyy spring months as they’re just outside of death valley and it was already too damn hot in late March.

A bunch of the related Death Valley pupfish (Cyprinodon salinus) I saw at Salt Creek in 2019 :) A bunch of little fish swimming in the shallow Salt Creek, that is only a few inches deep max
