National Park Foundation announces photo contest winners 

A photo of Death Valley National Park is one of the winning images from the National Park Foundation’s 2021 Share the Experience photo contest. The Share the Experience photo contest invites amateur photographers to submit their favorite views, moments, memories, and adventures from national parks and public lands across the United States, with safety top of mind.

Marissa Toma took the winning photograph of Death Valley National Park, which was honored in the “Fan Favorite” category. Toma said about her photo, “I hope it inspires other females to be confident enough to take solo adventures. I know I was intimidated at first by planning and taking a solo trip to such a large and desolate place. But I think traveling alone allows you the opportunity to get to know yourself better and to be free to meet other people along the way.”
