   Summary Author:  Becca Jones

   This sunset photo was taken near the town of Pahrump, Nevada on
   November 24, 2021. The photo shows a  dust cloud that was produced
   by a windstorm against the background of the  Shadow Mountain.
    Pahrump Valley is located in the  Mojave Desert and is roughly
   60 miles (100 km) west of Las Vegas, Nevada. The region borders
    Death Valley, however, is not subjected to the same scorching
   summer temperatures because of its elevation.
