(A report of a temperature of 58 Â°C (136 Â°F) recorded in Libya in 1922 was later determined to be inaccurate.) Daily summer temperatures of 120 Â°F (49 Â°C) or greater are common, as well as below freezing nightly temperatures in the winter. July is the hottest month, with an average high of 117 Â°F (47 Â°C) and an average low of 91 Â°F (33 Â°C). December is the coldest month, with an average high of 66 Â°F (19 Â°C) and an average low of 41 Â°F (5 Â°C). The record low is 15 Â°F (−9.4 Â°C). There are an average of 197.3 days annually with highs of 90 Â°F (32.2 Â°C) or higher and 146.9 days annually with highs of 100 Â°F (37.8 Â°C) or higher. Freezing temperatures of 32 Â°F (0 Â°C) or lower occur on an average of 8.6 days annually. 2369: 1945: 106: 2198: 56: 73: 2808: 2040: 2091: 2741:-associated stretching of large parts of crust below southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico started around 16 million years ago and the region is still spreading. This stretching began to affect the Death and Panamint valleys area by 3 million years ago. Before this, rocks now in the Panamint Range were on top of rocks that would become the Black Mountains and the Cottonwood Mountains. Lateral and vertical transport of these blocks was accomplished by movement on normal 3169: 686: 6430: 113: 80: 2675: 734: 2248: 7274: 3052: 2992:: the lower Sonoran, the Canadian, and the arctic/alpine in portions of the Panamint Range. Based on the Munz and Keck (1968) classifications, seven plant communities can be categorized within these life zones, each characterized by dominant vegetation and representative of three vegetation types: scrub, desert woodland, and coniferous forest. Microhabitats further subdivide some communities into zones, especially on the valley floor. 2144:. These sporadic mining ventures were hampered by their remote location and the harsh desert environment. In December 1903, two men from Ballarat were prospecting for silver. One was an out-of-work Irish miner named Jack Keane and the other was a one-eyed Basque butcher named Domingo Etcharren. Quite by accident, Keane discovered an immense ledge of free-milling gold by the duo's work site and named the claim the 621: 6375: 4906: 4891: 2727: 726:'s driest spot, receiving about 1.5 inches (38 mm) of rainfall annually at Badwater, and some years fail to register any measurable rainfall.
