Een 68-jarige Fransman is om het leven gekomen, nadat de auto waarin hij zat vast kwam te zitten op één van de heetste plekken op aarde: Death Valley National Park in de Amerikaanse staat Californië.

"DEATH VALLEY, Calif. — A 68-year-old French visitor died Monday, Aug. 17, after he and a traveling companion became stranded on a remote road in Death Valley National Park.

Pierre Michel Formosa, 68, and his travel companion, both from France, were traveling on West Side Road when their vehicle became stuck in mud near Queen of Sheba Mine Road. With no other vehicles in the area, the men began walking across the salt flats toward Badwater Road to seek assistance. Temperatures reached 116°F that day. After about 1.3 miles, the man was unable to continue. His companion continued toward Badwater Road, where he eventually received assistance from a passing motorist and reported the incident at the Furnace Creek Visitor Center shortly after 2 p.m."

The Long View Of Death Valley

From 6300' up on Aguereberry Point in Death Valley is a pretty great view looking South down the length of the park. Badwater Basin and more spreads far, far away.

Missed this from last month. (this seems to happen a lot). Just sharing it for the very scenic scene, lol. Quite great scenery! (also... I almost ran out of gas right about there once).
