I had no idea there was a sea in CA until I stumbled upon it a couple of weeks ago while driving to Salvation Mountain (which is totally worth a look). My friend and I got out of the car to investigate the sea and it smelled SO bad and there were THOUSANDS of fish skeletons all over the place. It was so gross

Went here as a kid by quadzero

This was a pretty desolate place… It stinks and I don’t understand why people go there.

if you like vacant lots... by sallymander1979

This rates in my top 5 most horrible travel experiences. My Dad stopped here with my sister and I on our way to San Diego when I was about 12 or 13. He didn’t realize this is a dead sea with no feeding rivers. I lost my taste for pimento cheese spread after we made sandwiches for dinner out of it since the local “bar and grill” was hardly a place for children. We had a two room suite in the local motel. One double bed had a leopard print spread, the other a purple tiedye spread, each with multiple DNA samples. I remember not letting my sister walk on the carpet barefoot.

Looking back, it would be a cool place to visit if you were a photograper, or were interested in some really, really cheap realestate. I just wouldn’t want to stay the night there.
