Named for a lucky French miner who struck gold at the nearby Eureka Mine, Aguereberry Point sits at a lofty 6433ft above the desert floor and delivers fantastic views into the valley and out to the colorful Funeral Mountains. The best time to visit is late afternoon. The 6.5-mile road is quite rough and a high-clearance vehicle is highly recommended.
