Mesquite flat sand dunes at Death Valley National Park offering a quick glimpse from the nearby parking lot
Although sand can be found in much of Death Valley National Park, there are very few places where it has accumulated to create dunes, yet this site does. The reason: wind, erosion from the northern mountains, and the natural barrier formed by the southern mountains keep the sand from moving further. The Mesquit Flat Sand Dunes can be visited from the nearby parking lot or hiked for 3.2 km. Caution: It is strongly discouraged to use the trail after 10 a.m. in summer.

Dommage qu'il y avait beaucoup de vent lors de notre visite, mais le site est vraiment sympa pour une balade dans les dunes,

Les dunes semblent sortir de nul part, comme la plupart des différents points de vues de la Vallée de La Mort. Badwater, Artist Palet, Zabrisky Point sont aussi impressionnant. Il faisait 50°C en août. Aucune randonnée possible tant le vent et le soleil vous brulent la peau!

These dunes seem planted in the decor, Sahara mini with very fine, but also very hot sand. This place is also see hottest the day for good to get to Death Valley...
