Its the desert, there aren't any trees for the most part. Between 3k & 5k feet there are some joshua trees ( http://netllama.linux-sxs.org/pix/42.html ), but that's about the only thing that grows to any real height in death valley. The picture that you referenced above was taken at Aguereberry Point ( http://netllama.linux-sxs.org/pix/22.html ), which is 6433ft. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lonni J Friedman [EMAIL PROTECTED] LlamaLand http://netllama.linux-sxs.org _______________________________________________ [email protected] Unsub/Pause/Etc : http://mail.linux-sxs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general
