<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 2851445, member: 15199&quot;]Believe it or not, the Salton Sea in the &#039;50s-60s&#039; was an excellent fishing and tourist area. Many movie stars from Palms Springs would come there to water ski and fish. That was when agriculture water was cheap enough to just allow the unabsorbed water to drain there, and Mexicali was small enough that its raw waste didn&#039;t overflow the border&#039;s New River. Water is now bought, sold , traded like oil to the coastal areas, much due to the Hunt bros. of Silver fame, so there is little run off, and it is becoming a dust bowl.I have photos someplace of the small trading posts, and dining cafes from the era, so I agree with Red_spork, a rather crude fake.
