I believe the vehicles at the left are parked at Stovepipe Wells. In any case this photo, also from Death Valley National Park, looks west and catches the setting sun through the dust kicked up by a passing vehicle.

The last day of our trip to Death Valley National Park we watched the sunset at Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, climbing around the dunes and trying to find the best spot. This view looks east from some of the higher dunes toward the Amarcosa Mountains.

Mesquite Flat is one area of sand dunes in Death Valley National Park. There are four others, but this is the only area of dunes that is easily accessible, lying along the main road near Stovepipe Wells and with a parking area from which one can walk into the dunes. Most of the other areas require a four-wheel drive vehicle or a long hike. The mountains in the background are the Amarcosa Range.
