Named by a party of golddiggers (or something like that) to commemorate the loss of one of their friends in the valley, the name seems quite fitting… My guidebook is a bit too harsh in saying that “Death Valley is best appreciated from an airconditioned car”. The writer must have never experienced a Swiss winter to enjoy the warmth of the desert spring, so at least I did!
Right you are! Lieber Hitze im Death Valley als diesen never-ending Winter hier. Hab mir gestern fast die Ohren abgefroren 🙁 NJOY!
