Death Valley Mountains

We have been in Death Valley National Park for three weeks.  Our days begin early, before 6 am. Mark is working by then, interacting with colleagues back East, and I soon get to work on the book I am writing.  By early afternoon we have put in a full day and are ready to go explore a new trail or canyon.

Beside hiking, we take photos -- of panoramic views from the peaks or of the immense desert floor. 

The mountains here are amazing - a geologist's dream, with every color and shape imaginable.  What follows are some of our favorite mountain views.
