Hey @digitalplayer! Sorry for the delay in answering your question. A "playa" is generally a temporary lake, usually in the desert, that has no inlet/outlet of water. They will collect water for short periods of time until it all evaporates in the hot temperatures. This one is called "Racetrack" because it's the home of a famous phenomenon where rocks move around and leave trails in the cracked mud.

Mind blowing - never seen something like that all over the Europe

That's one things I'll say for America: we have some shitty officials and politics, but also the most amazing and diverse natural treasures I have ever seen in my travels. The sliding rocks are exclusive to the southwest US, I believe. I'm not 100% certain on that though.

I think you have guys over there the most rich lands - agriculture to new high tech combustible crystals . Take care of it

Loved your to know about playa.
