Death Valley, California, USA.

Hottest, Driest and Lowest National Park!

In this below-sea-level basin, steady drought and record summer heat make Death Valley a land of extremes. Yet, each extreme has a striking contrast. Towering peaks are frosted with winter snow. Rare rainstorms bring vast fields of wildflowers. Lush oases harbor tiny fish and refuge for wildlife and humans. Despite its morbid name, a great diversity of life thrives in Death Valley.

There’s no trace of a human presence, no animals, plants, nothing except desert, salt, and stones (mountains). Surprisingly there is a flowers plant blooming in the intriguing Dante’s view, white basin and foggy mountains as backdrop.

EUREKA MINE - DEATH VALLEY CALIFORNIA

This bullet riddled 1940's vintage auto can be found in Pete Aguereberry's camp at the Eureka mine. Pete worked this gold mine from 1905 to 1945. Many of the structures in the camp are still standing today.

The mystery of the moving rocks in this remote area of the park was solved in 2013. With sufficient rainfall the playa can form a shallow lake. Under cold conditions, the lake freezes into floating ice sheets that break apart and can move the embedded rocks in a strong wind. This results in the moved rocks leaving their characteristic slide marks in the soft playa surface.

Note the heat generated mirage forming in the background at the playa/mountain contact.

I had the chance to go to Death Valley recently and we were treated to some rain and fresh snow on the mountain peaks overnight. Cold and windy day, but who could complain when your given the gift of a beautiful rainbow.
