Jeep Trip In Death Valley

We took a little jeep trip today with friends. It was an all day adventure up an obscure canyon on the west side of Death Valley. We were shooting for a client... It's great getting paid to do what you love.

Bad Water

Welcome to the lowest place in North America. This is place is called Bad Water and it is located in Death Valley, California. These incredible patterns in the dry lake bed are caused by water evaporating and leaving the salt behind. Standing amongst these salt polygons is like being on another planet. Death Valley is a never ending source of amazement.

Salt Creek, Death Valley CA

Salt creek is a salt water river. Who would have even thought that possible? It flows through Death Valley and at this time of year, December, it is not much more than a trickle. In places it dips beneath the surface only to appear again a bit "down stream". Eventually it sinks into the sands of the basin, not to be seen again. It is the home of one of many varieties of desert pupfish that actually have adapted and thrive in the salty water. Everywhere you turn, there is beauty and wonder in this amazing place.

Death Valley Movie

This is a little movie we put together to give you a taste of Death Valley, a most remarkable place.

Artist Pallet

Found this big raven sitting on a rock posing in front of Artist's Pallet, Death Valley National Park

20 Mule Team Canyon2

We are in Death Valley. One of our favorite spots is 20 Mule Team Canyon. If you think you have seen hot and dry, you haven't seen nuttin' until you've been here.... It is spectacular!!

Valley Of Fire

The Valley Of Fire is Nevada's first state park. The colors and textures are amazing. It is a short 50 miles from Las Vegas yet few take the time to visit.....

Las Vegas Office

Another tough day at the office in Las Vegas!!

Loneliest Road In America

We are working on our latest documentary about the Las Vegas water grab attempts. We are in Delta Utah and recently took a rather lengthy drive along what is often called the loneliest road in America. It is US highway 50. We learned why it earned this name. No services, no cell coverage and, well, nothing... here is a photo we took. It has earned its name!! Click on image for the full size version

Don't Need Roads

Took a little 4WD adventure today outside of Moab. Spectacular country and no, we don't need a road....

Arches National Park

Spent some time in Arches National Park today..... Just too beautiful!!
This is Balanced Rock. I just love this place....
The other shot is "Park Avenue" and is equally a awesome. I would heartily suggest a trip here.

Mesa Verde Burn

There can even be beauty in destruction. This once lush forest in Mesa Verde National Park stands decimated from fire, and yet its beauty, texture and colors show nature's handiwork. This image was taken moments before sunset this evening.... To be witness to this was way out beyond awesome.

Rio Grande River Gorge

This is the Rio Grande River Gorge. We took a little Jeep trip along the west rim and down through the middle. We crossed the Rio Grande at the Taos Junction. It was just beautiful.
