I have twice run into seemingly bright, educated Europeans who were under the impression you could drive the US coast to coast in a day (as with most European countries), and have heard the same from others. Many Europeans donât quite grasp how big the US is - old saying âin the US, 200 years is a long time. In Europe, 200 miles is a long way.â

The dangers of that part of the country are common knowledge to most Americans, but probably not to many tourists. One thing I knew from living in Arizona...always keep a couple of gallons of water in the car. Being sure to do that actually saved me once.

They used the German tourist map to find a faster route to cut time off their trip back to catch their flight back to Germany. The map showed an unimproved road that in theory would have shaved many hours off this return trip, but it was not the well-marked, paved road they thought it was. It was no more than a dirt track that was rarely or never used. By the time they were in dire circumstances, it was too late to turn around, so they pressed on and the road fizzled out. Their tires had been flattened by sharp rocks and they continued, only to get mired in sand. At 128 degrees Fahrenheit, they had no chance.

My guess. The children died before the parents, so perhaps the heartbroken pair buried them, before simply waiting for their own lives to end or be discovered

As an avid desert hiker but also a father to 2 young boys I cannot imagine the exasperation felt by the parents to see their kids waste away in the extreme heat. I pray for their soulsâŚ.

As a native American, I thought I had a good handle on the scale of these parks before traveling there for vacations. But growing up on the east coast didn't prepare me for the sheer scale of these places out west - larger than some European countries! I spent a full day driving across Joshua Tree, not even making it to the center of the park before midday with only a couple of quick stops for photos. Not a place to run out of gas, have car trouble or run out of water. There is a constant awareness of the dangers of your environment that just doesn't exist on the east coast. I feel for these people and hope for the families that someday evidence of the children can be found.

The desert, like the forests, should never be ventured by the ill-prepared.

My friendâs brother is a park ranger, I just learned from her that he was part of this search. I donât have any inside info or anything but I thought it was such a coincidence that she just told me about this.

I can't imagine the feeling of fear and despair they felt, knowing they were doomed but hoping that someone would come save them. It's heartbreaking.

From WebMD: "Children are more prone to dehydration and heat illness than adults because they have more body surface area per pound of weight." I was pretty sure of that, but I ran a search on children and dehydration to be sure. I guess it's kind of obvious what happened. The kids died first.

The amount of effort that goes into these videos is astounding. Whoever does the artwork is very good at it! Great vids guys.

Whenever you hear the name Death or Dead such as "Death Valley" or "Dead Mountain" just avoid going there !

I live fairly close to Death Valley and am familiar with the territory, so here's my take on the situation. They got lost and the car probably started to overheat so they started looking for a shady place to cool it down. (They were probably running the AC full blast and ran their coolant down.) The canyon where they were found likely had some promise of shade but they ended up getting stuck. The car, of course, would've turned into an oven and they would have to evacuate and find shade. Heat stroke comes quickly in that area, especially at the temps they were seeing that day. Likely all four family members died around the same time and likely only lasted a short time in that heat. The fact that the children were missing doesn't surprise me. They were likely carried off by scavenging wildlife in the night. The adults were too large and heavy and so were left. The children's bones are probably located either on a mountain ridge or down a canyon, depending on what species of animal found them. We lose people every year in that park, unfortunately, and most of them are tourists from cooler climates who underestimate the weather. We just had two separate deaths in the last month due to said heat. It is a tragic fact in the area.

I remember reading the online blog of one of the search and rescue guys on that Death Valley team years back about this exact family. Nice to see other folks speaking about it as well. It's truly a sad and tragic story.

The children's remains would be more easily scattered and lost over that period even if nearby.

The "metallic" sounds are a peculiar effect of wind-blown sand compaction. There's a well known dune in Nevada that seems to groan at times wind recreational vehicles climb or descend the sides.

Death Valley. Never has a name been more appropriate for such a region. Obviously there are others like superstition mountain and the headless which bedtime stories have already covered, but anywaysâŚ.

I personally think it's misadventure. Distracted driving through Death valley as a foreign tourist on vacation could easily have caused the family to get lost. Excited to be there and marveling at the sights, dad gets lost then goes catastrophically lost.
