Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the Climate and Meteorology of Death Valley, California Onset: of these Corrected means is the mean of five readings at intervals of one hour corrected for temperature and instrumental error. Peculiarly enough, however, this barometer (no. 349) was reported by the observer to be in bad condition and was returned to this office wholly unserviceable; a condition of affairs that seems scarcely possi ble, except to have been induced by ill treatment after the term of service of the instrument had expired. In view of these circumstances, therefore, the pressure observations at Furnace Creek can be relied upon as of as great accuracy as any that we can hope to attain with any single instrument of this type.

Download or read book Death Valley and the Amargosa written by Richard E. Lingenfelter and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1988-01-11 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the history of Death Valley, where that bitter stream the Amargosa dies. It embraces the whole basin of the Amargosa from the Panamints to the Spring Mountains, from the Palmettos to the Avawatz. And it spans a century from the earliest recollections and the oldest records to that day in 1933 when much of the valley was finally set aside as a National Monument. This is the story of an illusory land, of the people it attracted and of the dreams and delusions they pursued-the story of the metals in its mountains and the salts in its sinks, of its desiccating heat and its revitalizing springs, and of all the riches of its scenery and lore-the story of Indians and horse thieves, lost argonauts and lost mine hunters, prospectors and promoters, miners and millionaires, stockholders and stock sharps, homesteaders and hermits, writers and tourists. But mostly this is the story of the illusions-the illusions of a shortcut to the gold diggings that lured the forty-niners, of inescapable deadliness that hung in the name they left behind, of lost bonanzas that grew out of the few nuggets they found, of immeasurable riches spread by hopeful prospectors and calculating con men, and of impenetrable mysteries concocted by the likes of Scotty. These and many lesser illusions are the heart of its history.
