Almost void of life, there are few signs of plants or animals in the landscape of Death Valley. Despite its vacant appearance, this region is rich in human and natural history. Considered the lowest, hottest and driest place in North America, nowhere else has geology been so exposed for exploration and discovery. The Desert Speaks travels to such aptly named places as the "Devil's Golf Course," "Furnace Creek" and "Badwater" in a quest to profile the landscapes that make up Death Valley.
