Ice fishing in a dessert? This is Badwater Basin from a far. A large basin filled with salt and is the lowest point in North America (86 meters below sea level).
Even though water is extremely scarce, there are a couple of puddles with extreme high salt content. In it lives some worms, and apparently this is the only place on earth they live. Talk about odd place to decide to live.
The entire lake is filled with salt and it gives the impression of ice. We had a comparatively mild summer this year so temperatures did not go above 35C on this day.
Death Valley is a strange place. This is on the very end of Badwater and it's an area called Devils Golf Course. The terrain here is not exactly suitable for sport cars, nor Swedes with flip flops...
We got to Mono Lake right before sunset. It is a bit darker but you can still see the lake. A very bizarre body of water that lacks an outlet, causing the lake to have high concentrations of acids and minerals.
