6. The Dry Valleys (Antarctica): Driest Place on Earth
One area known as the Antarctic Dry Valleys. These valleys have not seen rainfall in over two million years. With the exception of one valley, whose lakes are briefly filled with water from flowing inland rivers during the summer, the Dry Valleys contain no moisture (water, ice, or snow). The reason why the Dry Valleys there are under 200 mph katabatic winds that evaporate all the moisture. Dry valleys are strange: except for a few steep rocks they are the only part of the continent of Antarctica without ice. Located in the Trans-Antarctic Range, they are associated with mountainous regions where evaporation (or rather, sublimation) is more important than snowfall, thus all the ice disappears, leaving dry barren land.
7. Marianas Trench (Indonesia and Japan): Lowest Point on Earth 35.840 feet (10.924 m) below sea level
