Photo of the Day by A. F. Litt: April 12, 2016
This is not that exciting of a picture, shot at speed while cruising down the highway, but I dug it out this morning while trying to dial in the location of the photo by Ghenadie Shatov in the Facebook post below. I originally remembered this valley being even emptier than this, and was not sure that it taken where I thought it was... But it was. While not quite in the National Park itself,
My shot is not nearly as great as Shatov's shot, but this was taken a couple weeks ago... It's near the road to Rhyolite, just west of Beatty, outside the park to the east. So this is the Amaragosa Valley and the Grapevine Mountains, but not quite in the park yet, though it is not too far from the park entrance and the mountains are in the park itself....
