Even photo workshops warn about flashfloods in DV!
http://www.deathvalleyphoto.com/Death_Valley_Photo_workshop.html
from the above url>Severe weather, although an infrequent occurrence in Death Valley can render roads impassable for days or even months. Flash floods, wash out of canyons at great speeds, never enter a canyon when a storm or heavy rain clouds are in the area. A storm can be miles away and still cause a flash flood in a dry area.
Every link I have read on Death Valley warns of flash flood danger, must be a good reason for that.
