• Death Valley’s Zabriskie Point

  

  One of the most popular places to visit in Death Valley National Park is Zabriskie Point. Probably because of the colorful and twisted sandstone rock formations.

• Death Valley NP’s Racetrack Playa

  

  Racetrack Playa at California’s Death Valley National Park is hard to get to but worth the effort. It is home to the famous sailing or sliding rocks. I’ve posted images of them here before but I wanted to bring a friend for her first visit. The 27 mile highly-washboarded road is teeth rattling but you…

• Annual Trip To Eureka Dunes

  

  I made my annual trip to Eureka Dunes at Death Valley National Park and was still blown away despite the cold temperatures. Along with my friend Lian, her first visit, we climbed to the very top of the dunes, some 700 feet on the first day and explored the smaller dunes the next morning. These…

• Death Valley’s Mesquite Dunes

  

  Not nearly as tall as Eureka Dunes, the Mesquite Dunes are more popular(Tour Buses pull into the parking lot) and thus has many footprints in the sand.

• Altocumulus lenticularis

  

  Per Wikipedia, Lenticular clouds (Altocumulus lenticularis in Latin) are stationary clouds that form in the troposphere, typically in perpendicular alignment to the wind direction. They are often comparable in appearance to a lens or saucer.  This one I shot over Death Valley National Park last week. Kinda looks like a saucer. Area 51 is nearby.…

• Badwater Basin

  

  Badwater Basin at Death Valley National Park is famous for the fact it is one of the hottest (It was 85 degrees F this day) and lowest places on earth.  The salt flats are a result of any standing water in the basin evaporating and leaving the salt deposits behind.  I caught these images last…

• Some More Sand Dune Pics!

  

  Additional images from Death Valley National Park’s Ibex Dunes. You’ll notice on some of these images that the lines in the sand are not holding. Your monitor and the fact that the internet can only handle 72 dpi images are the reasons some of the tight lines in the sand dunes appear fuzzy.    …
