Death Valley characters

Although meeting people in the wilds of Death Valley is not a common occurrence, I met a number of interesting people there, including a group of college students doing a trail survey, one of whom was Alyssa K, a confident climber, shown here after a short climb to the top of this out croup near Eureka Dunes. In retrospect, I should have photographed more of the people I met there—next time.
