ADORO IL GENIO - VALE
Cosa serve per creare uno spot unico? Un pizzico di #creatività, fotografia da #blockbuster, un tocco d'ironia, buoni attori, una storia inverosimile, una stracazzo di macchina e l'idea di un #comarketing tanto folle quanto vero.

The topography of California has always fascinated me, specifically the deserts (mostly the Mojave) of the east. Originally, I believed the Eureka Valley wasn't part of Death Valley, but was pleasantly suprised to learn it's simply an isolated park of the park. (1/2)

This scarf is a gift for my uncle, inspired by quartz clusters we saw together backpacking in Cottonwood Canyon in Death Valley. From what I've been reading I think they were formed by intrusive igneous rock forming around xenoliths, and by cooling very slowly forming the incredible quartz crystals we saw, which looked like rings around the darker xenoliths in the weathered rock face we saw. I'm not trained as a geologist though and would love to find more information about the geology of Cottonwood Canyon from someone with some real expertise!
The wool is targhee roving I got at the nor cal ren faire. I spun it on my small cross arm spindle and wove it on a loom I've been borrowing from a friend. It's plain weave set at 8epi. It looked very open on the loom, but fulled into a wonderfully bouncy and dense fabric.
After fulling I scoured the fabric, then used rubber bands to do this shibori inspired dye process. After putting on the rubber bands I gave it a bath in tannins I extracted from an oak gall, then in a bath of cool water with just a tiny bit of dissolved ferrous sulfate. It was so exciting to see the fabric turn grey in a a matter of just a few minutes when I put it in the iron bath!

“Canyon Hikers” — Two hikers walk along a desert wash between high walls in a Death Valley canyon.
It seems to me that when most people think of Death Valley National Park, the first things that come to mind are familiar desert icons, the sand dunes, with features like salt flats close behind. But the park is remarkably diverse, with other features that would surprise those who don’t know of them. Among them are the park’s canyons, some of which — like this one — feature extremely high walls…continues: https://gdanmitchell.com/2026/01/01/canyon-hikers/

Titus Canyon, Death Valley
Titus Canyon is a narrow, winding, one-way, 4-wheel drive road that cuts through the Grapevine Mountains of Death Valley starting in Nevada off of Highway 194, and coming out in Death Valley, California. See the map at the link below. Note: the Titus Canyon road and parking lot at west end are currently closed. Check the park web site before you go: https://www.nps.gov/deva/planyourvisit/conditions.htm
Most of the rocks that make up the range are over half a billion years old - a very thick sequence of limestone/carbonate rocks formed at the edge of a warm tropical sea - the Bonanza King formation. Later, the sea regressed and the rocks were subjected to compressional forces with the formation of a subduction zone at the margin of California over 200 million years ago. The rocks were uplifted, faulted, folded, and in certain parts turned upside down. See the folds in the aerial below.
Another cool part of Titus Canyon is the famous Megabreccia. A breccia is a sedimentary rock composed of angular fragments of rock cemented in a fine-grained matrix. The picture is below. Geologist Shawn Willsey does a great job of showing these fantastic features in the quick video below.
