Fossilized camel footprints at a secret location in Death Valley National Park. These are probably somewhere between 10 and 15 million years old.

What can I say about this location out in the California desert that I haven't already said in numerous other posts...?
I just love it out here on a dark night during Milkyway Core Season.
Let's go exploring.

The Mojave Desert is a beautiful and fragile ecosystem that is home to a variety of plants and animals, including the desert tortoise. Here are a few things we can do to keep it this way:
- Stay on the trails. This helps to protect the plants and animals that live in the desert. - Pack out what you pack in. This includes trash, food scraps, water bottles, etc. - Don't disturb wildlife. This means keeping your distance from animals and not feeding them.

Melvyn's - Palm Springs. Jazz club where the rat pack used to hang out, and lots of old Hollywood stars.

Taking a stroll in the ephemeral brines of Death Valley.
As a basin completely isolated from the sea, Death Valley is the ultimate sink and final destination for all of the surface and groundwater for an immense area of eastern California and central Nevada. Following an unusually wet summer and winter of 2023/2024, a lake as deep as 3 feet filled the salt pan on the flood of Death Valley and brought back a glimpse of how it must have looked when the valley contained a permanent lake in the geologic past.

Strong winds during my last visit actually pushed the lake some two miles to the north, churning up the sediment and mud of the lake bottom and turning the water to the color and consistency of chocolate milk. As the salty water evaporates from the surrounding mud, it draws the salt into long, threadlike crystals that turn the salt flats fuzzy for a brief time.
