Niland Boat Launch


Niland Boat Launch, originally uploaded by photodoc2.

Infrared image of the Niland Boat Launch area on the East side of the Salton Sea. The sea was formed in 1905 when the dam holding back the Colorado river compromised. Today, the salt levels are so high only Tilapia can survive.
Dead and mummified fish are laying everywhere due to an unexplained fish kill.
The park is abandoned and in complete disrepair.
