Death Valley

We went to Death Valley in March.  We stayed in Furnace Creek Campsite.  On the second day, a dust storm picked up and didn't let up until the night before we left. We lost a roll of paper towels and a coffee pot broke.  I thought the wind would pick up our tents and carry us away!  We had a great time, though, seeing the interesting land formations.


 Sand dunes:



 Getting farther and farther away:
 See that little dot? TOO far away! Come back!
 Mosaic Canyon



 Natural Bridge:
 Dust Storm! Hurry to camp!
 Badwater Basin salt flat:

 The sign says "Sea Level" so we were BELOW sea level!

 No snow, salt!

 Really, salt!

 Windy:
 Storm on the way home!
 Driving home in a snow storm!
