He's lived in Death Valley National Park for 25 years and says flowers are almost always blooming somewhere in the park. But superblooms are rare and brief when they do happen.
Millions of seeds may lie buried in the park's soil for years, adding up for a massive crop of wildflowers. When the weather conditions are just right, they all begin to sprout at the same time, spreading across the gray and brown desert in waves of brilliant colors.
The Park Service says it's happening right now and Van Valkenburg calls it a "once in a lifetime" opportunity for visitors to see a superbloom.
