Artist's Palette

The focal point of Artist's Drive, this colorful spot in the 3.50-million-acre Death Valley National Park gets its vibrant hues from a mixture of oxidized metal in the soil. Continued chemical weathering and oxidation keep the rainbow tints from fading. The splash of color is located about 7 miles from the entry point of the drive (from Badwater Road).
