“Death Valley National Park”
Hint, the name of the park is Death Valley National Park.
Yep
At night
Nailed it!
It’s almost like the name gives a clue
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Yup. We’re born to die. Eventually

So the highest temperature on earth this year, was recorded in the hottest place on earth.
Shocking.(/s)
Brain washing media fear campaign in action. 🙄
yep... But it’s a dry heat! :) :) When people say that I respond with “So is my oven, but I wouldn’t want to put my head in it all day.
Being called Death Valley might give you a reason to stay away
Well, it’s called “Death Valley” for a reason.
As a child, our vehicles only had “4-55 air” - 4 open windows at 55 mph. I can remember sweltering pretty badly on trips. On a long trip across several states, my little brother’s blanket blew out of the back window of the station wagon (he was in the very back). We were on a relatively new stretch of interstate & exits were something like 20 miles apart. Dad said he was not going back, but after MILES of screaming with my brother as red as a beet (no joke) he did go back. We found the blankie in the road with a big black tire tread mark on it. My brother sat by the washing machine & dryer the entire time it was cleaned.
My dad had advanced heart failure - he would not have made it very long without AC. When the AC went out on his old truck, he shelled out the bucks to get it fixed - said he “had” to have it. We have come close to checking him into a hotel when the power was out at the house due to storms.
You do become acclimated to heat - the folks in the good old days were acclimated. If you had health issues affected by heat, like heart failure, you just didn’t live as long.
The globull warming propagandists will nevertheless jump on this.
In 1976 it was 126 in Needles. Pretty warm. On the way to Disneyland when the world was a carousel of color.
95 in New Jersey yesterday Last year had 49 days above 90 f
This year only 7 so far, so been a cool year so far
It’s just one more oppertunity to push the climate change agend, like people who died of cancer or car accidents died of covid.
They tried to push the covid diagnosis onto my stepdaughter’s death of breast cancer. Luckily, her husband caught the trick and made them correct it.
Sat one time, this entire planet was tropical, even the poles so climate change is a normal earth cycle. Taxing humans for it merely puts $$ into the hands of the dishonest. $90% to the leaders of the communities, 10% to planting trees and picking up cow shit.
Yeah! I remember those good old days!
There’s a reason it’s called Death Valley
Duh
Sometimes it’s reported that it was an ‘experienced’ hiker like here in the PNW when an ‘experienced’ hiker dies, either in winter, summer, spring, you name it.
