USA - CALIFORNIA: Death Valley National Park
Death Valley was named by gold seekers who undertook to cross this desolate region in 1849 on their way to the California gold fields. The valley yielded gold and silver in the 1850s, and in the 1880s borax was discovered and taken out by mule-drawn wagons. The valley was much publicized by the American adventurer Walter Scott (“Death Valley Scotty”), and it remains a popular tourist attraction.
