But the truth about Death Valley is far more intriguing. 1  Itâs the largest National Park in the lower 48 states with 3.3 million acres. 2  It was established as a National Monument in 1933 and as a National Park on Oct. 31, 1994.  It has the lowest elevation in the Western Hemisphere at Badwater (282 feet below sea level)
Ever since the Lost â49ers gave it its name back in 1849, Death Valley has been famous for being one of the hottest and driest places in North America. In fact, Death Valley holds the record for the worldâs highest surface air temperature ever recordedâ134Â°F recorded at Greenland Ranch July 10, 1913. While 134Â°F is definitely well-above Death Valleyâs average summer temperatures, temperatures frequently reach or exceed 100Â°F from mid-May until early October. On July 5â14, 1913, Death Valley endured an intense stretch of hot weather. The high temperature reached 125Â°F or more every day, and that 10-day period still ranks as the longest consecutive stretch of temperatures that high on record in the valley.
