The Death Valley Suite is a short symphonic suite written by Ferde Grofé in 1949, depicting the westward travels of pioneers through the 'harsh lands' of Death Valley in California.
 Grofe was commissioned by the Death Valley 49ers, a non profit organization devoted to preserving pioneering and mining history of the Death Valley region (consisting of Death Valley National Park and surrounding area).

 It was abandoned in 1928.
The Southern Pacific narrow gauge is the informal name given to a network of narrow gauge railroad lines operated by the Southern Pacific Railroad (SP) in western Nevada and eastern California.

 The line was originally built by the Virginia and Truckee Railroad.
 It was later purchased by the Southern Pacific, the line made enough profit to repay the purchase price within only one month.
 However, in later years the line was not as profitable, although it was enough to justify dieselizing the line, one of the few such cases in the United States.

Death Valley National Park is a national park in the United States.
 Straddling the border of California and Nevada, located east of the Sierra Nevada, it occupies an interface zone between the arid Great Basin and Mojave deserts in the United States.
 The park protects the northwest corner of the Mojave Desert and contains a diverse desert environment of salt-flats, sand dunes, badlands, valleys, canyons, and mountains.
 It is the largest national park in the lower 48 states and has been declared an International Biosphere Reserve.
 Approximately 91% of the park is a designated wilderness area.
 It is the hottest, driest and lowest of the national parks in the United States.
 The second-lowest point in the Western Hemisphere is in Badwater Basin, which is 282 ft below sea level.
 The park is home to many species of plants and animals that have adapted to this harsh desert environment.
 Some examples include creosote bush, bighorn sheep, coyote, and the Death Valley pupfish, a survivor from much wetter times.
