Abandoned mobile home, Salton Sea Beach, Southern California, USA.


The Salton Sea is an inland saline lake, located in the Colorado Desert in Southern California, north of the Imperial Valley. The lake covers a surface area of approximately 376 square miles, making it the largest lake in California. It averages 15 by 35 miles. Its maximum depth is 51 feet and its total volume is about million acre-feet. Sea inflow averages million acres-feet per year. The Salton Sea falls within the territories of both Riverside County and Imperial County. Like Death Valley, it is located below Sea level, with the current surface of the Sea at about 220 feet below Sea level. The deepest point in the Sea is only 5 feet higher than the lowest point in Death Valley. The Sea is fed by the new, White water and Alamo rivers, as well as a number of minor agricultural drainage paths and creeks. The Sea would appear to be polluted, I regularly find the shoreline littered with dead fish and birds.
