The rising sun reveals ripples and texture at various scales in the Mesquite Dunes, Death Valley National Park, California.
A friend and I woke at 3:30 in the morning to observe the Milky Way and the darkness of the heavens in this relatively remote spot. It was fascinating watching the detail of the universe give way to the detail of our beautiful planet. Navigating the dunes in the nascent morning light, it was also interesting to observe the quantity of fresh Sidewinder marks in the sand. Thankfully, the Sidewinders appear more than capable of avoiding blundering hominids in the dark.

After the winter rains bring the mud down to the valley, the summer heat cooks it like an oven and we end up with these amazing formations of mud cracks.

Here we are at the lowest point in North America, 86m below sea level. This basin is covered with a layer of salt that forms these surprising hexagonal structures as far as the eye can see.
Ici nous sommes au point le plus bas d'Amérique du Nord, à 86m sous le niveau de la mer. Ce bassin est recouvert d'une couche de sel qui forme ces suprenantes structures hexagonales à perte de vue.
