Salton Sea State Recreation Area

 

Heading back west from Anza-Borrego we visited the Salton Sea. This unique body of water was created in 1905, when the flooding Colorado River was accidentally diverted into the Salton Sink, thus creating the current Salton Sea. The sea holds millions of fish that feed masses of wintering birds.
