Yuccas in the gypsum

Image 5 of 5

Sculpted by wind and rain, the desert supports very few plants including these yucca. Instead of sand, this is the soft-as-talc gypsum, normally a rare constituent of sand because it is water-soluble, except here at White Sands National Monument near Alamogordo, NM, where this gypsum dune field is the largest of its kind in the world. Unlike dunes made of quartz-based sand crystals, the gypsum does not readily convert the sun's energy into heat, and thus can be walked upon safely with bare feet, even in the hottest summer months.
