Unveil the mystery of Death Valley
Death Valley is located in the mountains at the junction of Nevada and California in the western United States. Its unique saline-alkali geology and cold landscape create a suffocating atmosphere in Death Valley.
The story of Death Valley began in the middle of19th century. 1849, a group of gold prospectors came to a valley to look for gold. There is almost no vegetation in this valley, only yellow sand and no puddle lake. In the process of searching for minerals, they couldn't find a way out, and fewer and fewer people survived. Most of the horses and cattle pulling carts were slaughtered, and the survivors finally escaped. They looked back at the valley where their relatives and friends were buried and said goodbye sadly: "Goodbye, Death Valley." Death Valley got its name.
Death Valley: It smells of death.
Death Valley is not lifeless. According to statistics, there are not only hundreds of exotic animals in Death Valley, but also dozens of unique species. The stones inside can also "walk" and even a branch of Indians lives there. Like migratory birds, they migrate here every year to enjoy the pleasant winter in the valley.
However, for ordinary human life, Death Valley will cruelly reject them. Every year, thousands of tourists explore Death Valley out of curiosity, but there are often tourists who never return and die on this "burning earth".
It's very hot here. It is common that the air is terribly dry when the temperature exceeds 40℃. There is little rainfall, no plants, mostly bare land and gravel. In death valley, people will have problems if they stay for a short time.
AbigailWines, a spokesman for Death Valley, said that some people didn't even realize that their lives were in danger. She told the Las Vegas Review: "People don't realize that this could be fatal. People think that if they don't sweat, they are not hot. But they don't know that they are sweating because the climate is too dry. "
Death Valley is called the "hottest, driest and lowest" national park in America. Although the scenery of Death Valley is unique and spectacular, this extremely hot weather will make it unsuitable for tourists. If you are daring and not afraid of death, you'd better wait until winter, when the weather will be relatively mild, and you should bring a map and plenty of water, and you'd better choose to drive. Death Valley National Park also warns hikers not to take risks after 10 in the morning!
