Death Valley 2022/23

[DeathValleyDazed]

Wow! Your first image of the river dead center and the landscape and sky scape is total eye candy. The strongest wind I've personally experienced anywhere is on Rogers Peak, the one between Mahogany Flat and Telescope Peak. I had goggles but I had to get on hands and knees and sit down for a while because standing and walking was treacherous on the ridge line. I have no idea how was the wind was and I admired how well engineered that communication equipment on top is anchored down to withstand those frequent blasts. The wind whistling through those metal structures sound like a jet engine.
