Old borax mine Two climbers
reaching the top		 The last rainfall
moved most of
this rubble		 This maker was
waist high before
the floods		 Flower in the
desert		 Shades of gold
from yellow to
orange to apricot		 Deeply creased
and barren
hillsides

Zabriskie Point
in the distance		 View of the
badlands from
Zabriskie Point		 The cliffs are the
layered remains of
ancient lake beds		 White out-
croppings in the
rock		 The cliffs contain
a large quantity
of iron		 Looking back Sunset
