The Memory of Lake Manly

November 2004

$25.00$1,600.00

Lake Manly was a huge freshwater Pleistocene lake during the last ice age, 600 feet (180 m) deep, and over 100 miles (160 km) long from shore to shore (see a detailed look at this in my book, Chapter Six). With the birth of the 4 American deserts around 10,000 years ago, Lake Manly became a memory. In this scene with the mysterious rays of light emerging compellingly from the clouds above the Panamints—photographed with my large-format K. B. Canham camera—one can identify the three forks of the fun-filled and challenging Hanaupah Canyon. I’ve explored extensively and slept there primitively many times over the decades—particularly, the South fork that has the bubbling Hanaupah Spring. Such rare oases in Death Valley are special places, they are unique riparian habitats where unique flora and fauna have survived over the course of evolution.
