5. Artists Palette
Artist’s Palette in Death Valley is a striking landscape known for its vibrant array of colors, created by the oxidation of various metals. Red, yellow, and pink hues are the result of iron salts, while green tones come from decomposing mica, and purple shades are formed by manganese.
