For your amusement and hopefully some honest critique, I just released this virtual tour:
What works or doesn't work? What could be better?
One fun fact, I found a music track that I hoped to use as background. I approached the composer. The track wasn't available but he offered to compose something specifically for the tour. It was a nice collaboration experience.
Looks great! Panos are nice and sharp!

Amazing, I felt in the atmosphere movie of Antonioni

So I gather you have seen Zabriskie Point. It was a....curious movie. Very much of the era. Then there are all the Star Wars scenes shot in the park. None of that can happen anymore, of course. But I found it really cool knowing I was walking right where C3PO and R2D2 had left their tracks. Fascinating place.
Really nice virtual tour in this strange place !! 
Thanks you for sharing it.
I'm planning a vacation and thinking of visiting Death Valley. I've heard a lot about its unique landscapes and extreme conditions. I'm curious if it's worth the trip—has anyone been there and can share their experience?
Absolutely, Death Valley is worth the trip! I visited last year and it was an incredible experience. The landscapes are truly unique, from the rolling sand dunes to the stark salt flats. The best time to visit is during the cooler months, typically from November to March, to avoid the extreme summer heat. Make sure to bring plenty of water, sun protection, and be prepared for some rugged terrain.
Interestingly, I read an article about Badwater Basin in Death Valley National Park, which is the lowest point in North America at 282 feet below sea level. This spot showcases the park's extreme conditions and unique geology. Just like planning a visit to Badwater Basin, where you need to be prepared for intense heat and dry conditions, planning your trip to Death Valley requires some forethought. Ensure you're equipped for the environment to fully enjoy the park's beauty. For more details on what to expect and how to prepare, check out this guide from MK Library.
Scott, after start the map has no location. Bug?

Harris -- That was a major point of my tour. However impressive you think Death Valley is if you haven't been there, it is way more amazing. It's SO worth the visit! But I strongly recommend November through February for more comfort's sake. My tour barely scratched the surface and I hope to expand it before long.

Thanks SO much for noticing this and letting me know. If I recall, I need to update my Maps subscription and will do so ASAP.
