3. SOUNDBITE (English) Ty ONeil, The Associated Press:
“Now, it’s important to note this isn’t the official temperature at Death Valley, it’s the temperature it is right here. So we’re getting a little additional heat against the wall and cement”

++SOUNDBITE COVERED BY SHOT 5++

"So many of the locations you can visit in Death Valley are much like this one, where you can pull up a car, jump out, get to the place you want to take your photo in a couple of feet."

10. People taking photos
11. SOUNDBITE (English) Ty ONeil, The Associated Press:
“So we just arrived in Badwater, and I, kind of, want to take you through the stages or waves of how the heat affects you out here. So this is our first stage, in your car, air conditioning, looking out at the heat. Pretty nice right now."

14. Sign warning of heat
15. SOUNDBITE (English) Drew Belt, visitor from Tupelo, Mississippi:
