| Let's start with a page from my bookmarks for the trip, primarily for the Mojave National Preserve and Death Valley National Park. Several links are to sites with great photos of the area. | |
| The vastness of the desert invites panorama photography. You just can't take it all in with a single frame. | |
| Our first few days were in the new Mojave National Preserve. | |
| The Kelso Dunes were a unique experience the next day. | |
| A typical first view of Death Valley is from Dantes View, on the east side of the valley. You're at a 5000+ foot elevation, looking over a -280 foot elevation valley to mountains in the 12,000 foot range. | |
| The best way to see the Park is to take the side roads and then get out and walk. | |
| A late afternoon walk with a Park ranger took us out in the dunes for the sunset. | |
