Death valley is a rift valley (or graben), a depressed block of Earth’s crust lying between parallel uplifted and tilted fault-block mountains. It has been continually sinking over millions of years. It has been flooded and drained many times during climatic change cycles over tens of millions of years, leaving behind the traces of beaches and salt flats.
