According to our "cheat sheet" those yellow flowers are Common Sunflowers. I'd be interested if someone who actually knows what they are looking at can confirm or deny that.
Those are early pics I pulled off my wife's FB page. She hasn't sorted thru all of her pictures yet, I know there are some with much bigger fields of view. Imagine standing at the intersection of Badwater and Harry Wade roads and seeing all of the alluvial flows with view being yellow. Not hints of yellow here, there and elsewhere, but YELLOW!
There's a dome of redish colored rocks south of the Warm Springs & West Side intersection and north of the Ashford Mill ruins on the west side of the valley that slightly protrudes above those alluvial flows. All of its erosion gulleys had yellow in them, but the high surfaces were bare. Made it look like a brain.
Do something, call in too well to go to work if you have to, but go see this.
