Photo by @Gerd Ludwig. A rusting chair sits on the shoreline of Salton City. As farmers let their fields go fallow in order to sell water to nearby towns, there is now limited agricultural runoff feeding into California's long-troubled Salton Sea. This decrease in the water supply is exacerbated by the current extreme drought conditions in California, leading to serious concerns about the lake's increasing salinity.
Once a lure for movie stars in the 1950's and 60’s, Salton City was expected to become the next Las Vegas, with fancy hotels, Yacht Club marina, and golf courses. It hosted more than a half a million visitors in its heyday, but today it has fewer than 2,000 inhabitants.

Join me this March for my workshop, “The Art of Storytelling - The Salton Sea.” Information here: http://www.gerdludwig.com/?p=4298
