i was 13 when i went to death valley with my father..i'm 41 now and, well dad is 68..i promised him i would take his ashes there when he passes..as much as i love you death valley, i hope not to see you soon.
Wow, my music video was filmed there. It was 130F... I couldn't breath but had to actually sing for the video. Check out my "Imagination" music video: Siggul Imagination

best place on earth. we drove in these kind of places here, and for miles there is no sign of life. no electric lines nothing, our cell phones lost receptions for hours, when we entered nevada from mammoth lakes. advice for travelers, always keep your gas tanks full, cuz if your car stalls, there is just few cars that passes by after long times. BEST EXPERIENCE EVER.
@lewiss1100 That is what my girlfriend thought... *Whats there to see in a dry hot desert* She loved the drive, the views, the quietness. Not too many people know about this place. We were at Furnace Creek Ranch and its a very different experience. Planning to go back again in December, when the temperatures are much cooler. It is the lowest, driest, and hottest locations in North America. I noticed many tourists from Germany and France. Not many people go to DV but the ones that do, love it.
I have visited Death Valley several times - it is my favorite place on earth! ... my favorite place in the valley is ventifact ridge... Tom / Alabama USA
Me and my family go to Death Valley once a year for the 49ers. Ive been going since I was 2 and I am now 16 years old. I will never stop going, and once I start my own family I will take them to it too. Please, if you have never gone to Death Valley, plan a trip there. It is an experience you will never forget!
death valley...despite the fact that it contains virtually no life...is the most beautiful place ive ever been. But its best to go in the winter or early spring cuz its miserably hot in the summer
For any americans out there death valley is not as hot as iraq and kuwait. Gotta check out al basrah and al jahrah. These knock the fuck out of death valley for clear sunshine and temperature
There are several reasons why Death Valley is one of the hottest places on earth.1 its located in a valley, far below sea level(86m) ,so the heat is trapped by the high mountains that sorrounds the area, makes it to an owen, and beacuse of the föhn effect its gets even warmer. 2.DV's located far from sea +it lies in rain shadow, means that almost no rain can reach D.V due to the high sierra nevada mountains. When the air reaches d.v it's very dry with almost no moisture and can heat up quickly-
I would think as long as a person comes REALLY prepared with LOTS of water and sunscreen and means of communication, they'd be fine. I want to go there.:)
I haven't been there in August but I can say spring is a great season to go if you're concerned about temps, if you have the chance to go then. The temps are lower then and it's more likely to be wildflower season. Pack lots of water regardless. :)
some more reasons: there isn't very much water that isn't saturated with ground salts, and also the 1849'ers crossing it were unprepared and many died, trying to cross it to get to gold country. Also it's in a rain shadow, and it almost never gets precipitation at ground level.
I travelled around Southwest USA in 2005 and 2006. Omg in June2006 it was so hot there. at 12'o clock temperature was already 50°c and would raise to 53°c in the afternoon. One day afterwards we took a picture in the snow in Yosemite National Park. Totally crazy contrast!
I was through the desert back when I was in my late teens in the 80s. all I remember were lots of colors and how hot it was. He should have shot this video later at night when you get all the reds and orange atmosphere. This just looks like Stockton valley to me. Not very desert like.
when i went there we were at the campground and we opened the cold water spout and hot water came out of it. also, this one guy slept on a picnic table because it was so hot.
I will be spending some time out west at the end of February. I will be driving from LA to Las Vegas and I think I need to pay a visit to Death Valley.
went in the summer hottest it got was 126 farenheit or 52.2 degrees celsius the heat burnt your eyes but an amazing place definetly somewhere i'd go again.
I lived and worked in Death Valley for several years. It's the only place I've ever missed. This gorgeous video captured not only the beauty, but the sense of spacious solitude. Thank you.
the death valley makes you scared,the death valley makes you sad,the death valley makes you happy.....but most important....the death valley makes you free.....fantastic place....thank you DEATH VALLEY
i've never been to Death Valley, but your video makes me want to pay a visit. beautiful photography. nice job editing. i recognized that guitar music at the end of the piece from a soundtrack by Ry Cooder. good choice.
I'm a long-time DV fan, looking forward to going back after 10 years since my last visit. Your video is like a little appetizer for me! Very well edited. Music and sound add just enough for the mood. Thanks for sharing.
