Salton Sea Project
      Philip Stilwell
2a. At the blue sign
This was one of our first stops on our trip. The sign looks crooked,
  but it is actually straight. It looks like that because the ground
 underneath it is uneven. This marked the beginning of my gorilla
                               adventures.
2b. At the visitor center
 This is me striking a pose at the visitor center. Kaitlin and Malerey
were inside looking for the ranger while Max and I took this picture. I
  consider this a favor to the camera because of my stunning face.
2c. With a creature
       This is me with birds. This was the only time during the trip that we saw
a large group of flying creatures so we quickly took turns getting a picture with them.
               Apparently, birds don’t like living in the middle of nowhere
                 in heavily polluted water. I never would have guessed.
2d. Shaking hands with ranger
The ranger was a very nice lady. She shook all of our hands, and then
 got back to work after we were done interrupting her. I heard that
the ranger talked about me to other groups of students, so I’m glad
 that my mask made an impression on her. I plan on taking over the
                  world with the mask some day.
2e. At the boat ramp
This is the boat ramp where we found all the dead fish.You can see
 them to my right (the picture’s left) if you look closely. The ramp
               smelt like salt water times one billion.
2f. With the fisherman
The fisherman seemed very confused when an individual in a gorilla
 mask came up to him and took his fishing pole. I reassured to him
            that I was human by removing my mask.
2g. Holding up a fish
This was one of the many dead fish that we saw on the edge of the
 water at this particular boat dock. It smelled terrible. Confirmed
               dead. It wasn’t just lack of deodorant.
2h. Air quality station
I don’t know if I got the two air quality stations mixed up, so I put
  this one here just in case. Insert same paragraph for the last air
                         quality station here.
2i. On the beach looking at sand
This is me crying because Kaitlin is abusive. Also, the sand is made out of dead fish.
        Thanks for the heads up Mr Wehler. This happens to the fish because
                the water’s salt content is extremely high, effectively
                    killing the fish and turning them into fish dust.
3. Mecca Beach Sign
                     This is the sign for Mecca Beach.
         As you can see, it is labeled as a state recreation area.
This is not true. It is basically just a desert with dead animals and dirt.
   Maybe it was a recreation area fifty years ago, but not anymore.
4. Corvina Beach
This is the Corvina Beach sign. As you can see, it is another
failed recreation area. There is nothing but dirt and polluted
     water at this one. Definitely fun for the whole family.
5a. Bombay Beach Sign
This is the Bombay Beach Sign. It is most likely named as a derivative of ‘bomb’,
since the idea of having a beach here ‘bombed’ after the water became a salty
         mess that nobody wanted to get within one hundred miles of.
5b. At the air quality test station
     This is a picture of us at the air quality testing station.
   According to the person we asked, it’s no longer in use,
     probably because they gave up testing the terrible air
   at the Salton Sea. I don’t blame them. I also noticed that
the fence was perfect for honing my gorilla-wall-climbing-skills.
5c. Pirate’s Alley
In all honesty, I don’t remember what Pirate’s Alley was.You can just
             go ahead and mark me down for this slide.
5d. At the ski inn.
 The ski inn was an interesting place.
The people inside were already drunk
and it wasn’t even noon. It is quite the
  lifestyle that they have embraced.
They were funny though, so I will give
          them credit for that.
5e. In the Ski Inn
 The name is misleading. It isn’t actually an inn, and as soon as you’re
inside, you want to get out. We hung around just long enough to take
            a picture, and then we ran back out to the car.
5f. The prettiest house
  This house won by a lot. All the other houses consisted
of broken windows, missing doors, and dirt. It wasn’t even a
               contest choosing this one.
5g. At the old marina
This is me walking back from the end of the marina. The smell was
horrible. It would be torture to make someone stand out there for
more than twenty seconds without an air freshener stapled to their
face. Standing out there was the equivalent of locking yourself in a
             refrigerator full of ten year old rotten milk.
6. Spa Sign
This is us outside the entrance of the resort. Malerey isn’t actually
holding me on her hand. It is an illusion. I will tell you the secret on
                 how it was done if I can have an A.
6a. At the market
   I stopped to take a nap at the market while everyone else went
inside. The pavement was hot, and it burnt my arms, but that is a very
             small price to pay for a few minutes of sleep.
6b. In front of Gilly’s
       It wasn’t called Gilly’s anymore, so I hope this counts.
We got a lot of confused faces when we kept asking where Gilly’s
was. Eventually we found a person who had lived there for a while,
        and they knew about Gilly’s. It took a lot longer than
                          expected though.
6c. Prettiest house
We weren’t allowed to go very far, so this was the prettiest house we
could find within our limits. It’s not great, but it worked well enough
 for what we needed to do. Notice my expertly executed fish face.
6d. At first tee
  This was a very unusual golf course. At first we were looking for
    something that actually had grass, but then we realized that it
 probably wouldn’t have grass since it was in the middle of a desert.
After asking for a lot of directions, we found our way to the first tee.
7a. Rattlesnake Sign
I hid from the camera in this picture. This is a sign telling us
to beware of rattlesnakes, however it was winter so I think
we were safe. I don’t think the rattlesnakes wanted to mess
                      with me anyway.
7b. At the info kiosk
       This is us at the info kiosk next to the rattlesnake sign.
I was looking in the yellow box for rattlesnakes, but I couldn’t even
               find one. They are really good at hiding.
8. Mud volcanoes
  The volcanoes shot mud up
  at our faces so we couldn’t
 get too close to them. This is
 me standing next to one. We
   also had one of our only
human encounters here. It was
weird actually seeing someone.
9. Niland Sign
           I don’t really have much to say about Niland.
It was mostly deserted except for a few trailers, and we didn’t stay
   there very long. I can comment on the sign, though. It has nice
                 colors, and is pleasing to look at.
9a. Buckshot Diner
      This is a picture of me sitting in front of the door at the Buckshot Diner.
The guy tried to get inside while I was having my picture taken, so we took the picture
       really fast and then ran away to avoid being chased down by his posse.
We went inside momentarily, but we didn’t eat there because we were short on time.
9b. Niland Fire Dpt.
    This is us at the fire department. There was a tiny dog
running around while we were there. I got a few pictures of
it but I lost them. Apparently some other groups saw it too.
10. SM Sign
    This was the beginning of our journey into salvation
mountain. There were a lot of strange individuals there, but I
guess I’m not one to judge since I was invading their habitat.
  They seemed to be enjoying their time at the mountain.
10a. On the stairs
   This is me standing on the stairs
at Salvation Mountain. It was a really
 strange place and I couldn’t wait to
 get out of there. It was cool, but it
 creeped me out. The guy who built
it must have spent a long time on it.
11. Slab City Sign
I ventured inside the box while everyone else stayed inside. It
  had some weird writing and smelled like poop. Definitely a
      multi-sensory experience. All ages recommended.
11a. Shoe Tree
  I tried to throw my shoe into the shoe tree. Luckily, it
 didn’t stay. I would have lost my shoe forever! We went
here right after Salvation Mountain, since we saw it on the
                      side of the road.
11b. Christian Center
     This was the Slab City Christian Center. It said “all
welcome” but we didn’t dare to step inside. I’m sure it was
 a nice place, though. We just didn’t feel like picking a lock
           and sneaking in on that particular day.
11c. At the range sign
   This place was interesting. It seemed like a miniature
  theater that people would perform at a long time ago.
There wasn’t anyone there, but I’m assuming that it used to
   be a pretty cool place to hang out on the weekends.
12. IID Wetlands Sign
  This was the best sign ever. It worked as a perfect shade
from the sun, and explained how it planned to preserve the
ecosystem. It killed two birds with one stone. I wish I could
                   be as good as that sign.
13. Desert Shores
    This was Desert Shores. It was a nice place to end our day.
It had a better look to it than the rest of the desert, and it didn’t
                          smell bad either.
13a.VFW
This was a cool site to see. It reminded me of my grandpa since he
          served in World War 2. We hung around here
              for a few minutes and looked around.
13b. Church by the Sea
When we stopped at the church by the sea, I sat down and prayed
           that I would get an A on this assignment.
               We will see how that turns out.
13c. DSFD
This was us at the Desert Shores Fire Department. We happened to
 be there when the fire truck was parked inside. A lot of groups did
              not get to see it, so we were fortunate.
14. Salton Sea Beach
This was us at the Salton Sea Beach entrance. Max almost died here.
Kaitlin’s mom saved him from getting run over by a car. He needs to
             look both ways before crossing the street.
14b. At a picnic table
The picnic tables at the Salton Sea Beach were sunk half way into
the ground. This sand was also made out of dead fish. If you look
  to the right, you can see Max rocking the Justin Bieber hair.
15. Red Earth Casino
This is us at the casino. I was planning on going in and winning some
 money, but apparently there is an age requirement when gambling.
                We could have gone home millionaires.
16. Salton City Welcome
  This was the welcome sign for Salton City. It is kind of
 ironic because we went here when we were leaving. The
sun was almost down, and we were on a mission to finish
                up the last of our pictures.
16b. West Shores RV
This was one of our last stops on the trip. We were all tired as you
 can see by Max’s questionable actions. I’m not quite sure what he
             was doing, but it was probably pointless.
16d. High School
Something tells me that our high school might have a little bit higher
standards. I don’t know for sure, though. That’s just what it looks like
                          from the outside.
18a. Food Mart
It took me so long to perfect this move that it would be
  cruel to not give me extra credit for this slide. It was
            harder than it looks, Mr Wehler.
20. Geothermal Plant

 This is me at the geothermal plant.
We weren’t allowed to get a full tour,
  so we just stood there acting like
   we belonged, and they didn’t get
              mad at us.
20a. (Semi) Tour of Plant
This was us in the geothermal plant. Max stepped over the yellow line before
 this picture was taken, and panic was induced. They quickly told him to step
     back over the line and to be more careful. I don’t think they liked us.

Salton Sea

  • 1. Salton Sea Project Philip Stilwell
  • 2. 2a. At the blue sign This was one of our first stops on our trip. The sign looks crooked, but it is actually straight. It looks like that because the ground underneath it is uneven. This marked the beginning of my gorilla adventures.
  • 3. 2b. At the visitor center This is me striking a pose at the visitor center. Kaitlin and Malerey were inside looking for the ranger while Max and I took this picture. I consider this a favor to the camera because of my stunning face.
  • 4. 2c. With a creature This is me with birds. This was the only time during the trip that we saw a large group of flying creatures so we quickly took turns getting a picture with them. Apparently, birds don’t like living in the middle of nowhere in heavily polluted water. I never would have guessed.
  • 5. 2d. Shaking hands with ranger The ranger was a very nice lady. She shook all of our hands, and then got back to work after we were done interrupting her. I heard that the ranger talked about me to other groups of students, so I’m glad that my mask made an impression on her. I plan on taking over the world with the mask some day.
  • 6. 2e. At the boat ramp This is the boat ramp where we found all the dead fish.You can see them to my right (the picture’s left) if you look closely. The ramp smelt like salt water times one billion.
  • 7. 2f. With the fisherman The fisherman seemed very confused when an individual in a gorilla mask came up to him and took his fishing pole. I reassured to him that I was human by removing my mask.
  • 8. 2g. Holding up a fish This was one of the many dead fish that we saw on the edge of the water at this particular boat dock. It smelled terrible. Confirmed dead. It wasn’t just lack of deodorant.
  • 9. 2h. Air quality station I don’t know if I got the two air quality stations mixed up, so I put this one here just in case. Insert same paragraph for the last air quality station here.
  • 10. 2i. On the beach looking at sand This is me crying because Kaitlin is abusive. Also, the sand is made out of dead fish. Thanks for the heads up Mr Wehler. This happens to the fish because the water’s salt content is extremely high, effectively killing the fish and turning them into fish dust.
  • 11. 3. Mecca Beach Sign This is the sign for Mecca Beach. As you can see, it is labeled as a state recreation area. This is not true. It is basically just a desert with dead animals and dirt. Maybe it was a recreation area fifty years ago, but not anymore.
  • 12. 4. Corvina Beach This is the Corvina Beach sign. As you can see, it is another failed recreation area. There is nothing but dirt and polluted water at this one. Definitely fun for the whole family.
  • 13. 5a. Bombay Beach Sign This is the Bombay Beach Sign. It is most likely named as a derivative of ‘bomb’, since the idea of having a beach here ‘bombed’ after the water became a salty mess that nobody wanted to get within one hundred miles of.
  • 14. 5b. At the air quality test station This is a picture of us at the air quality testing station. According to the person we asked, it’s no longer in use, probably because they gave up testing the terrible air at the Salton Sea. I don’t blame them. I also noticed that the fence was perfect for honing my gorilla-wall-climbing-skills.
  • 15. 5c. Pirate’s Alley In all honesty, I don’t remember what Pirate’s Alley was.You can just go ahead and mark me down for this slide.
  • 16. 5d. At the ski inn. The ski inn was an interesting place. The people inside were already drunk and it wasn’t even noon. It is quite the lifestyle that they have embraced. They were funny though, so I will give them credit for that.
  • 17. 5e. In the Ski Inn The name is misleading. It isn’t actually an inn, and as soon as you’re inside, you want to get out. We hung around just long enough to take a picture, and then we ran back out to the car.
  • 18. 5f. The prettiest house This house won by a lot. All the other houses consisted of broken windows, missing doors, and dirt. It wasn’t even a contest choosing this one.
  • 19. 5g. At the old marina This is me walking back from the end of the marina. The smell was horrible. It would be torture to make someone stand out there for more than twenty seconds without an air freshener stapled to their face. Standing out there was the equivalent of locking yourself in a refrigerator full of ten year old rotten milk.
  • 20. 6. Spa Sign This is us outside the entrance of the resort. Malerey isn’t actually holding me on her hand. It is an illusion. I will tell you the secret on how it was done if I can have an A.
  • 21. 6a. At the market I stopped to take a nap at the market while everyone else went inside. The pavement was hot, and it burnt my arms, but that is a very small price to pay for a few minutes of sleep.
  • 22. 6b. In front of Gilly’s It wasn’t called Gilly’s anymore, so I hope this counts. We got a lot of confused faces when we kept asking where Gilly’s was. Eventually we found a person who had lived there for a while, and they knew about Gilly’s. It took a lot longer than expected though.
  • 23. 6c. Prettiest house We weren’t allowed to go very far, so this was the prettiest house we could find within our limits. It’s not great, but it worked well enough for what we needed to do. Notice my expertly executed fish face.
  • 24. 6d. At first tee This was a very unusual golf course. At first we were looking for something that actually had grass, but then we realized that it probably wouldn’t have grass since it was in the middle of a desert. After asking for a lot of directions, we found our way to the first tee.
  • 25. 7a. Rattlesnake Sign I hid from the camera in this picture. This is a sign telling us to beware of rattlesnakes, however it was winter so I think we were safe. I don’t think the rattlesnakes wanted to mess with me anyway.
  • 26. 7b. At the info kiosk This is us at the info kiosk next to the rattlesnake sign. I was looking in the yellow box for rattlesnakes, but I couldn’t even find one. They are really good at hiding.
  • 27. 8. Mud volcanoes The volcanoes shot mud up at our faces so we couldn’t get too close to them. This is me standing next to one. We also had one of our only human encounters here. It was weird actually seeing someone.
  • 28. 9. Niland Sign I don’t really have much to say about Niland. It was mostly deserted except for a few trailers, and we didn’t stay there very long. I can comment on the sign, though. It has nice colors, and is pleasing to look at.
  • 29. 9a. Buckshot Diner This is a picture of me sitting in front of the door at the Buckshot Diner. The guy tried to get inside while I was having my picture taken, so we took the picture really fast and then ran away to avoid being chased down by his posse. We went inside momentarily, but we didn’t eat there because we were short on time.
  • 30. 9b. Niland Fire Dpt. This is us at the fire department. There was a tiny dog running around while we were there. I got a few pictures of it but I lost them. Apparently some other groups saw it too.
  • 31. 10. SM Sign This was the beginning of our journey into salvation mountain. There were a lot of strange individuals there, but I guess I’m not one to judge since I was invading their habitat. They seemed to be enjoying their time at the mountain.
  • 32. 10a. On the stairs This is me standing on the stairs at Salvation Mountain. It was a really strange place and I couldn’t wait to get out of there. It was cool, but it creeped me out. The guy who built it must have spent a long time on it.
  • 33. 11. Slab City Sign I ventured inside the box while everyone else stayed inside. It had some weird writing and smelled like poop. Definitely a multi-sensory experience. All ages recommended.
  • 34. 11a. Shoe Tree I tried to throw my shoe into the shoe tree. Luckily, it didn’t stay. I would have lost my shoe forever! We went here right after Salvation Mountain, since we saw it on the side of the road.
  • 35. 11b. Christian Center This was the Slab City Christian Center. It said “all welcome” but we didn’t dare to step inside. I’m sure it was a nice place, though. We just didn’t feel like picking a lock and sneaking in on that particular day.
  • 36. 11c. At the range sign This place was interesting. It seemed like a miniature theater that people would perform at a long time ago. There wasn’t anyone there, but I’m assuming that it used to be a pretty cool place to hang out on the weekends.
  • 37. 12. IID Wetlands Sign This was the best sign ever. It worked as a perfect shade from the sun, and explained how it planned to preserve the ecosystem. It killed two birds with one stone. I wish I could be as good as that sign.
  • 38. 13. Desert Shores This was Desert Shores. It was a nice place to end our day. It had a better look to it than the rest of the desert, and it didn’t smell bad either.
  • 39. 13a.VFW This was a cool site to see. It reminded me of my grandpa since he served in World War 2. We hung around here for a few minutes and looked around.
  • 40. 13b. Church by the Sea When we stopped at the church by the sea, I sat down and prayed that I would get an A on this assignment. We will see how that turns out.
  • 41. 13c. DSFD This was us at the Desert Shores Fire Department. We happened to be there when the fire truck was parked inside. A lot of groups did not get to see it, so we were fortunate.
  • 42. 14. Salton Sea Beach This was us at the Salton Sea Beach entrance. Max almost died here. Kaitlin’s mom saved him from getting run over by a car. He needs to look both ways before crossing the street.
  • 43. 14b. At a picnic table The picnic tables at the Salton Sea Beach were sunk half way into the ground. This sand was also made out of dead fish. If you look to the right, you can see Max rocking the Justin Bieber hair.
  • 44. 15. Red Earth Casino This is us at the casino. I was planning on going in and winning some money, but apparently there is an age requirement when gambling. We could have gone home millionaires.
  • 45. 16. Salton City Welcome This was the welcome sign for Salton City. It is kind of ironic because we went here when we were leaving. The sun was almost down, and we were on a mission to finish up the last of our pictures.
  • 46. 16b. West Shores RV This was one of our last stops on the trip. We were all tired as you can see by Max’s questionable actions. I’m not quite sure what he was doing, but it was probably pointless.
  • 47. 16d. High School Something tells me that our high school might have a little bit higher standards. I don’t know for sure, though. That’s just what it looks like from the outside.
  • 48. 18a. Food Mart It took me so long to perfect this move that it would be cruel to not give me extra credit for this slide. It was harder than it looks, Mr Wehler.
  • 49. 20. Geothermal Plant This is me at the geothermal plant. We weren’t allowed to get a full tour, so we just stood there acting like we belonged, and they didn’t get mad at us.
  • 50. 20a. (Semi) Tour of Plant This was us in the geothermal plant. Max stepped over the yellow line before this picture was taken, and panic was induced. They quickly told him to step back over the line and to be more careful. I don’t think they liked us.
