No, they do not close DVNP after Easter. It is open all year around. There
are a couple of camp grounds closed after mid April that is only due to
the lower attendance. I was there last year well after Easter and walked
from Furnace Creek to Stovepipe with about 70 other fools for the Death
Valley
Wow, Dave, did you know that they close down DVNP after Easter for
the rest of the summer? It can reach +125F or higher at Easter so be
prepared with lots of water. I loved to visit Bodie and Scottie's
Castle. I lived in Barstow 1971-1976. The desert was my playground
with my old 66 GMC
