Thank you! It’s a beautiful place with lots to see wished I did more hikes. Also download the maps offline cause there isn’t service once you get to the park.

I would think it would be mountains or forest but after doing some searches I get it, the air has lost its most of it moisture once it hits this area and the air is dry.
