All of the valley floor beyond the sign is below sea level due to the slow separation of two tectonic plates over millions of years. Death Valley is not only the lowest place in the western hemisphere, it is also the hottest place on Earth with summer daytime temperatures often topping 120 degrees with nighttime temperatures not falling below 100 degrees. A few months ago this whole area was carpeted with wildflowers. During the last ice age it was an enormous lake.

 

Later this day while travelling to an abandoned mining camp I got two flat tires at the same time on a particularly rocky stretch of road in middle of nowhere where it was 102 degrees with no shade.

After a stormy day on Monday. On Tuesday morning, St Mark Square was flooded from the rain. The building and tourists were clearly reflected on the water and lot of tourists enjoying themselves with this clear calm water in the square. Three hours later all the water totally disappeared from the square.

A composition in steel by local sculptor David Jensz at this year's Sculpture by the Sea. Unexcitedly titled, 'Level', according to the blurb it's a statement on anticipated sea level rise (it might be rusted by then).

Well nearly anyway. Roxy is very good at sitting still, but this was a challenge. The mini-level is just a round barrel so any movement would cause it to roll off. This is as good as I could get as she was tiring of my instructions. Bless.

As I descended, the view over Muker meadows disappeared and the two barns "rose up" against the background of Ivelet Side.

I forgot to post this one yesterday. We started our day on the Levels with a walk along the River Tone, near Ham.

A minor level crossing near Worsbrough on the Worsbrough branch, that linked Wath with Barnsley Junction at Penistone, that was once part of the 1500DC Woodhead system.

This section of the Woodhead route closed to all traffic just after 1pm on 17th July 1981, after the passage of the Wath branch bankers which were 76012 and 76007.

The Worsbrough branch now forms the 9 mile Dove Valley Trail that runs from Silkstone Common towards Wombwell passing through Dodworth and Worsborough and forms part of the National Trans Pennine Trail.

Denton Village Crossing is one of the many and varied crossings on the former NER route between Carlisle and Newcastle. This one – pictured looking east in February 2009 - had a crossing keeper with manually controlled gates and a ground frame with semaphore stop and distant signals.

 

The signals were normally in the off position with gates closed to road traffic but I was fortunate to capture them at danger while a car crosses. The signals were removed just a few months after this picture was taken as part of the area’s re-signalling project, based on the new signalling centre at Low Row, however the gate keeper was retained.

 

The signal post on the left (for the up direction) is slightly unusual (though similar to one at Low Row). It’s constructed of a welded steel frame stem surmounted by a tubular post, surprisingly - in this exposed location - not in need of any “guy ropes”. To the right of the image, the down signal looks like it has an original NER square wooden post but that is tethered by three stabilising wires.
