White Sands in the Tularosa Basin
White Sands National Monument, New Mexico, USA.
The glistening dunes of White Sands in the Tularosa Basin are not sand, but fine gypsum, deposited on an ancient seabed 250 million years ago. Gypsum, a form of calcium sulfate, is water soluble and washes away. But geological forces here created a basin with no outlet. In the background the Sacramento Mountains.

Composed of fine gypsum, deposited over 250 million years ago on an ancient seabed, they create a mesmerizing illusion. With each step, it feels like walking through a dreamy wonderland.

The contrast between their rugged grandeur and the softness of the white dunes creates an awe-inspiring harmony that will leave you spellbound.
