Severe thunderstorms caused more flood damage in northern Death Valley National Park than initially thought, park officials said.
The visitor's center at Scotty's Castle, a Spanish-style mansion that offers guided tours, was inundated with about 2 feet of mud in Sunday's storms, park officials said Tuesday.
The outside of the center, which occupies the garage portion of the ranch house named for Walter Scott, known as Death Valley Scotty, is surrounded by rocks, mud and other debris from the flood.
Scotty’s Castle, the main house in the historic district, was not damaged, but the hacienda building’s interior ground floor was filled with about a foot of mud. Inside the Cook House, park officials found a few inches of mud. Flood debris covers the outside of the stables.
The flood damage was so severe that park officials said Scotty’s Castle likely will be closed for several months.
