First qualified as "National Monument" in 1933, and transformed to National Park in 1994, Death Valley is situated on the eastern side of central California. It's a place of extremes: from freezing temperatures in a winter night to one of the highest summer temperatures on earth; from Telescope Peak towering 11,049 feet above Badwater's -282 feet;from canyons formed by nothing but erosion and water to absolutely dry lakes that barely see an inch of rain a year, Death Valley cannot be described in just a few words, and cannot be seen in just one visit.
