Hottest, Driest,
Lowest: Death Valley is a land of extremes. It is one of the
hottest places on the surface of the Earth with summer temperatures
averaging well over 100 degrees Fahrenheit. At 282 feet below the level
of the sea, it is the driest place in North America with an average
rainfall of only 1.96 inches a year. This valley is also a land of
subtle beauties: morning light creeping across the eroded badlands of
Zabriskie Point to strike Manly Beacon, the setting sun and lengthening
shadows on the sand dunes at Stovepipe Wells, and the colors of myriad
wildflowers on the golden hills above Harmony Borax on a warm spring
day. Death Valley's outstanding natural beauty and scientific importance
were first brought to the attention of the National Park Service in the
late 1920's. With the support of Stephen T. Mather, Director of the
National Park Service, Death Valley's national significance was
recognized, and it was proclaimed a national monument by President
Hoover on February 11, 1933. With the passage of the Desert Protection
Act of October 31, 1994, Death Valley grew by 1,200,000 acres and was
designated a national park. Today Death Valley National Park is made up
of 3,336,000 acres and contains more than 3,000,000 acres of wilderness.
