Join local historians and storytellers David and Gayle Woodruff for a fascinating journey into the surprising and often unbelievable history of Death Valley. Beyond its reputation as one of the hottest places on earth lies a landscape filled with colorful characters, daring schemes, and remarkable events. This one-hour illustrated presentation explores the valley's legendary borax era and the famous Twenty Mule Teams, uncovers Death Valley's unexpected connection to what was once called the largest stock fraud in American history, and follows the trail of notorious 1969 murderers who sought refuge in its vast and isolated desert wilderness. Blending rare photographs, little-known stories, humor, and historical insight, David and Gayle reveal a side of Death Valley that is far stranger, richer, and more captivating than most visitors ever imagine.
