re: #69 Dr Lizardo

Every time I visited the Salton Sea it always struck me as a neat place to visit but I would not want to live anywhere near it.

If one is into geology, the entire basin is fascinating. As one drives around, you can see the mountains rise sharply at the San Diego - Imperial border, but also one can see a β€œring” as in a bath tub ring, where the ground is whitened. During the prior few million years, at times when the sea level was higher, Imperial county was at times flooded, both by sea and by the Colorado river runoff. One can find plenty of fish fossils in parts of the county.
