California’s Salton Sea was once a sparklingdesert oasis, attracting vacationers in mobile homes and RVs. The people have gone but their trailers remain. Located in Southern California’s Colorado Desert, the Salton Sea was created inadvertently in 1905 when a “perfect storm” of heavy rains and ill-advised construction of irrigation canals allowed the mighty Colorado River to divert into the bone-dry Salton Sink.
