I think most of us will be forced to admit that we have never even heard of the world's most desolate and horrifyingly remote desert, the insidious Takla Makan.

1. It has a lake of sorts, or would you call this a swamp?
2. A view from higher up.
3. But most of it looks like these dunes.

Geography is fun.

1. An incredible view of a river in Alaska.
2. A view from a little bit higher up.
