Death Valley
After heading out from civilization I went through Death Valley. It was quite windy some places and sand blew everywhere. Being a desert it was also very hot. The car thermometer maxed out at 48C (118F), and it didn't help that I had to run around to get some of the video shots I had planned. Even though there wasn't actually much to see it was still quite an experience, and I'm sure, whenever I think back of that trip you can still find grains of sand from Death Valley lodged somewhere in my body.
