White Sands National Monument can only be described as other-worldly.
The thrill of scrambling through the dunes, 
and leaving temporary footprints in the soft white sand…
is humbling in the presence of its vastness.
The ethereal gypsum dunes sweep across 275 square miles of the Tularosa Basin,
forming a complex yet delicate ecosystem…
…that supports the constant shape-shifting caused by precipitation and wind.
But the surrealism that surrounds the spectator…
intensifies when the sun dips below the horizon of the Sacramento Mountains…
quickly cooling the sand beneath one’s feet, 
awakening the magic that ignites the desert glow.

Me too. It would have been disappointing trying to describe it without experiencing it.
