Death Valley National Park: Sailing Stone
2013 By Michael Korfhage, Joel Anderson
About the Art
In 2014, scientists finally uncovered the mystery of the “sailing stones” of Death Valley National Park.
According to accounts, these stones move across a dry lakebed, seemingly of their own accord.
Researchers found that, as the lakebed floods, freezes, breaks, and evaporates, prevailing winds catch
the rocks during that time and literally push them along the slippery, icy lakebed. Though the riddle
has been solved, the phenomenon is still quite amazing: yet another peculiar natural event only found
in Death Valley. Anderson Design Group found that story quite inspiring, rocks which moved, not of
their own accord necessarily, but by the very will of nature itself. Our team hand-illustrated this
National Parks poster to commemorate these infallible rocks.
Our gorgeous art prints are made-to-order on high-fidelity 9-color presses. Printed on gallery-grade archival paper, each work of art is hand-trimmed, rolled, and shipped in a protective tube. Each print features an original illustration by the talented, award-winning artists of Anderson Design Group.
