The Salton Sea: The Land that Time Forgot

Salton Sea

The land that time forgot.

On Friday morning, I was greeted by Clint Davis, the infamous art director of Import Tuner, who said he really wanted to show me someplace mind-blowing. And let me tell you, he wasn’t kidding! The Salton Sea is a wet dream for any photographer. A totally forgotten hole in the desert. Incredible!

Here are a few images, and my sincerest thanks to Mr. Davis (not to mention the 400-mile roundtrip drive. You are a beast, my friend!)

Pic #1: A demolished caravan.

Pic #3: A mechanical crane, which has been left to rot. I’ve never seen anything like it.

Pic #7: The coast of the Salt Lake is literally a fish cemetery—miles of skeletons as far as the eye can see.

Pic #9-10: An abandoned business south of Bombay Beach.

Pic #13-14: A bridge to nowhere. Madness.
