VideoWave Flashback 3: Death Valley

In the little flashback-series it’s now time for a view of another desert, and one that is usually quite the opposite of the Greenlandic desert where we are now presiding;
Death Valley that lies within the Mojave desert in Eastern California.

Last time we were here it was the hottest any one of us had ever tried; it seemed impossible to stay outside for more than a few minutes, because all humidity just disappeared from the skin and extraordinary heat made us uncomfortable. – This time in late November it was almost a little bit cold; 15-20 degrees and very dry and clear, so when the sun set everything got cold immediately.
