Next morning at about 200′ below sea level. Note that it looks like a desert! Weird!
It’s been so wet this year that there is still some water hanging around the valley.
This flower is an example of the billions that are blooming in Death Valley right now. I was here in the ’70s and caught them all blooming then too.
Deeper into the valley are even more flowers, like these…
One of the ‘Twenty Mule Team Borax’ plants in the valley. Borax is just lying around on the ground. These facilities were used to process it.
A little further on, at Furnace Creek. I spent the night at the RV park within walking distance of here.
On the way to Scotty’s Castle the next morning…these looked like ‘Painted Desert’ rocks to me, but they didn’t come out looking as expected for some reason.
