Death Valley has a very low percent of humans.

11 to 16 miles and is the thinnest land mass on Earth.

Yes there is groundwater that comes from Nevada.

Well, the Amargosa River begins in Oasis Valley north of Beatty, Nevada and flows south through Shoshone, California; Tecopa, Amargosa Canyon and then it makes a big turn and heads north. It feeds Saratoga Springs and then bottoms out at Badwater Basin 282 feet below sea level in the heart of Death Valley. During most of its 200 mile journey the Amargosa River flows underground.

The dead sea is 420 meters or 1378 feet below sea level. Death Valley is 86 meters or 282 feet below sea level. The difference is 334 meters or 1096 feet. See the related links for more information.

Rugged, hills, sand dunes, and canyons throughout Death Valley.

It is 282 feet [85.95m] below sea level. It is the lowest point in North America.

Death Valley is dry, but it's certainly not rain-free. If I look at weather.com

(on the date of the posting, October 15, 2007), there was none in September or October. We need the station record for the entire year, but it's not easy to get a hold of. It is out there, at the NCDC, but it's behind a paywall.

And, for the record, yes it does torque me off that I can't get data from a government web site from the government that I paid to collect it without paying for it again. If it required someone to go dig for it and mail it to me, I wouldn't mind paying for it, but it's an automated web server burping out text. That's ridiculous.

Not really. Death Valley is a desert and the portrays the character of Undertaker was not born there. That's just a facade to include some mystery and enigma to the character that he is.

Recorded deaths are relitively few because most people know of the dangers there and are well prepared. It got it's name from the fact that the weather is very extreme and there is no water for a very long time.

Yes, Death Valley is located in the Mojave Desert.

Sand, rocks and cacti with 90 degree temps in the shade.

Not Exactly. The most surprising part of Death Valley are the extraordinarily tall mountains that sandwich the valley. Next is the white alkali, salty valley floor. Then there's the underground river that bottoms out at Badwater - the deepest spot in the Western hemisphere 282 feet below sea level. There are springs in the mountains and spectacular sand dunes in the middle and southern end of the Valley. Temperatures can get well over 100 in the shade in summer. I was there when it hit 127. Always have plenty of water.

You can drive through Yosemite in about 2 to 3 hours. This would include driving from the south of the park from Glacier Point through the valley and up to Tioga Pass and exiting to the east.

Vegetation includes creosote bush, desert holly, and mesquite at the lower elevations up through shadscale, blackbrush, Joshua tree, pinyon-juniper, to sub-alpine limber pine and bristlecone pine woodlands.

Death Valley is282 feet below Sea Level at its lowest point. While Death Valley is the lowest elevation in the Hemisphere, it is far from the lowest elevation in the world, such title belongs to the Dead Sea area in Israel, which is about 1,349 feet below Sea Level. The Sea of Galilee in Israel is also about 700 feet below Sea Level. The entire Jordan River is below Sea Level. Where can I get a graphic description of what portion of Death Valley is below sea level?
