Photograph of the sign standing over the entrance to Furnace Creek Camp in Death Valley National Park. In the near distance at center, the large sign post for the camp stands. Two stone pillars stand on either side of the driveway into the camp. Above the drive, a wooden sign spans the gap between the pillars. Across the lumber it reads, "FURNACE CREEK CAMP." Two yokes hang down from beneath the wooden sign. Past the sign and to the left of the drive, a few buildings, lined with palm trees, stands. A few cars are parked to the right of the buildings. Mountains are visible in the far distance.
