replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A8 #ParkChat That Canada has deserts too! We have a “pocket desert” in the southern Okanagan Valley, and the arctic is considered to be a desert.

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A8: The deserts of eastern Oregon - Alvord. Such a contrast to the coastal/mountainous areas. #ParkChat

A8. The Arctic, for sure. Here in Washington we've got the Palouse, too. Definitely desert. #ParkChat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A8) I doubt that many would consider Antarctic a Desert but technically it meets the criteria. #ParkChat

A8: @GreatBasinNPS was a huge surprise as we drove across the barren desert. The climb from the gates to the highest peak is a study in changing landscapes. #parkchat
