Patches of Desert Gold trace all the drainage paths along the surface of the Split Cinder Cone extinct volcano in the southern end of Death Valley National Park. I was amazed at how such seemingly insignificant differences in the amount of water could cause such dramatic differences between channels of wildflowers and barren volcanic surface. It really shows how precious water is in this dry place and how much of a difference it can make to funnel just a little bit more into certain spots.
BNSF coal load AA428 is just out of Mammoth Spring, AR as it curves along the Spring River and over the Trace Creek Bridge. This spot was used by the Frisco for several publilcity shots over the years. It is just after 11 a.m. on August 8, 1996 and it is already getting a bit hot and humid out here. The BN 9497, 9513 and BNSF 9741 have 114 JHMX hoppers loaded with Powder River Basin coal headed for Memphis. The hotbox detector down at King will register 90 degrees just a few minutes later.
