  The chef had a great perspective on life. He said "No matter how many people tell you "No", the right person will tell you "Yes".  I liked that.

  During my first deployment I was stationed with a dude who was from death valley.  He wasn't phased by the heat in Kuwait, lol.

  Park Ranger here. I went to thank you for not only showcasing our parks, but doing so in an informative manner. Ranger, you did a great job on the interview!  Clear skies everyone!

  I was raised in the coldest city on Earth, Yakutsk, Russia. I visited Death Valley a few years ago and it is wild to go from one extreme to another. It was hard for me to be outside for too long at all without the risk of getting heat stroke.

  This was an amazing adventure.   As a house bound disabled senior... thanks for taking me along!

  I’m from France and me and my friends went to Death Valley thinking it’d be a one week long nature stop before heading for Vegas. It was all going amazingly well until our car broke down on the 5th day in a ghost town in the middle of nowhere lol, our phones were all overheating and we were stranded until a very nice elderly couple from Colorado stopped. They were so nice! We managed to cool our phones with their car’s AC and to call the rental company who just told us to leave the car there. And the couple took all three of us to Vegas! Definitely wanna go back!

  Despite of low population the Furnace Creek is surprisingly well kept. It doesn’t look abandoned or anything.

  Their resilience, sense of community, and ability to thrive in such extreme heat is truly inspiring.
