Textures in sand dunes at Mesquite Flats with Grapevine Mountains in distance, Death Valley National Park, California, USA
The Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes are at the northern end of the valley floor and are nearly surrounded by mountains on all sides. Due to their easy access from the road and the overall proximity of Death Valley to Hollywood, these dunes have been used to film sand dune scenes for several movies including films in the Star Wars series. The largest dune is called Star Dune and is relatively stable and stationary because it is at a point where the various winds that shape the dunes converge. The depth of the sand at its crest is 130-140 feet (40-43 m) but this is small compared to other dunes in the area that have sand depths of up to 600-700 feet (180-210 m) deep

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the mesmerizing textures of sand dunes at Mesquite Flats, located in Death Valley National Park, California. The vast expanse of these dunes is beautifully contrasted against the backdrop of Grapevine Mountains in the distance. As one gazes upon this image, they are transported to a serene and untouched natural landscape. The Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes are a unique feature within Death Valley, surrounded by mountains on all sides. Their accessibility from the road and proximity to Hollywood have made them a popular filming location for movies, including scenes from the iconic Star Wars series. Amongst these dunes lies Star Dune, the largest and most stable formation due to its strategic position where winds converge. Although it may seem inconceivable, the depth of sand at Star Dune's crest reaches an astonishing 130-140 feet (40-43 m). However, this pales in comparison to other nearby dunes that plunge as deep as 600-700 feet (180-210 m).
