TOPG Webinar Series - Online via Zoom 

Exploring the Salton Sea
Monday, June 13, 2022 at 7:30 PM

Host: Mike Macartney
Webinar Link: Exploring the Salton Sea
Downloads: No downloads at this time.

Details: The Salton Sea is more than a photo destination and environmental disaster. It is an exotic place to be explored, like the Nile, but without crocodiles. The Salton Sea is also a 20th Century ghost town of sorts that's rapidly disappearing. In a few years it will shrink to a much smaller area and Lithium mining will become an industry there.

Mike Macartney will discuss what to expect visiting Salton Sea, where to stay, what to bring, and when to go.
