An uncle of mine winters in Vegas and invited my cousin and me to visit. Among other side trips we spent a day in Death Valley. This was my first trip there and I’ll be going back. There are some pretty spectacular views and everything is totally foreign to me. I imagined several times that I’d see martians peeking around a corner.
The boardwalk over the only non-bottled water I saw all day
Looks like a normal brook except for the salt line
There are actually guppies that live in this horribly salty water
I think the boardwalk would be neat during the rainy season
We might as well have been on the moon
Scene from Star Wars?
A chance to hide from the sun
Time to surf?
That’s not snow
Not sure where they were coming from, but they were pretty far out there
The kind of friendly local flora you find in a place called Death Valley
Looking down over Badwater Basin from Dante’s View
these are amazing!
