The Salton Sea on MetaFilter
There was a post on MetaFilter today with links to lots of cool pics of the Salton Sea by a guy on Flickr. I’ve never actually seen the Sea, despite having driven near it numerous times, but it’s definitely on my list of Things to Do.
The Salton Sea: “Jonson takes pictures of The Salton Sea, which is a strange place, like some kind of huge, perpetual, Burning Man, but by a huge, salty, polluted, manmade lake with distant shores, dying fish, has-been resort towns, Salvation Mountain, fundie dinos, fountains of youth, and nice churches.

I posted on Celsius1414 about the various restoration efforts last year: “Press-Enterprise: Salton Sea help gets closer”.
