sliding rock on The Racetrack Playa in Death Valley, California


'just ran across this and liked how svelte my shadow looked and after the biggest rainstorm in the history of recordkeeping in these parts, the desert looks inviting.

Ron asked so here it is... I have no idea what made the track, I didn't.

...well, Ron, what did it?


Peace

EDIT: I think I know what made the track but will wait till I hear what Ron has to say about it first.

Desert Sunflowers

Gerea canescens, Desert Sunflowers (the plant grows about 18" tall and the flowers are about an inch across. In the other photographs that look like there are portions of yellow ground cover... it's the Desert Sunflower, they grow a couple feet apart and one has to get down to their level to 'bunch' them into view.

I made this image from near Stovepipe Wells where the dunes were a couple miles away (see the folks on top the dune) and the top of the far ridge was about ten miles distant. Scale in the desert is extremely misleading.
