Description: The Salton Sea is the largest lake in California by surface area, and its very existence is a total accident. In 1905, flooding caused the Colorado River to spill over the man-made irrigation canals to pour into what was then known as the Salton Sink – a 40-mile-long dry desert basin. It took two years to stop the flooding, during which the Salton Sink had filled up and formed the Salton Sea. it didn’t take long before people began flocking to this desert oasis as a weekend getaway to picnic and play in the lake. While smaller settlements had popped up over the years, Salton City was established in 1958 and the town’s population quickly grew to 15,000 people, with thousands more arriving on the weekends.
Description: The Glamis Sand Dunes, located in southeastern California near the Arizona border, form one of the largest dune fields in North America and are a premier destination for off-road enthusiasts. Part of the Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area, Glamis stretches for over 40 miles, with massive, ever-shifting dunes that can rise more than 300 feet high. The area draws riders from across the country who come to drive ATVs, dirt bikes, 4x4s, and dune buggies across its open terrain. Beyond recreation, the dunes also have a unique ecological and cinematic significance, having served as a filming location several movies over the years. Despite the harsh environment, specialized plants and wildlife have adapted to survive in this striking landscape.

Description: Tijuana Sloughs is the break where the Tijuana rivermouth meets the Pacific Ocean. It is actually easiest to access Sloughs from Imperial Beach, since getting there from Playas de Tijuana would mean paddling north across the border and could result in attracting attention from the Border Patrol. This is a wave that changes greatly depending on the season, the amount of recent rainfall and swell direction. It is usually best in the wintertime on the big Northwest swells. Tijuana Sloughs is a series of cobblestone reefs that can handle waves over triple overhead. That said, it is somewhat of a mysto spot since the takeoff zone is shifty and there is a tendency for sneaker sets to come out of nowhere and blow through the lineup. !http://...
