What genuinely exists is narrower, tied to the salt itself and the desert sky above it.

There is no shade, no water, no cell signal, and no visible landmark once the horizon curves away in every direction. Disorientation, sunstroke and severe dehydration in that featureless white void have proved fatal to unprepared hikers, and nights drop well below freezing even when the day was warm.
