Mohave National Preserve….singing sands

Howdee all,

We were told the sands sang…so we went out to find out for ourselves..

The tall dune looked close…

but it wasn't as close as it looked..

On the way to the tall dune…I saw these plants…all folded into itself..

any ideas??

  Lots of tiny tracks..

  So our dune..getting closerUp and down up and down..seems like it is getting farther away..Andrew makes it up first…as usual…    And Jeff follows…Testing the sand for sounds…  enjoying the fine sand!  Hello from Dawn Jeff and Andrew  Andrew showing us his technique for making the sand sing….     A short video of the singing sand

 

On the way back I spy a heart …

A close up view of the heart! I ♥ Deserts
