Carcross Desert, Yukon, Canada
You might not associate Canada with deserts, but the
country – usually hailed for its impossibly blue lakes and lush forests – is
actually home to the supposed smallest desert in the world. There was
originally a glacial lake here, but when the glaciers retreated the lake was
lost, leaving behind only the sandy bed. The little desert is a strange,
otherworldly sight with snow-capped peaks rising from the edge of the sand and
trees springing up all around.
