replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A4 #Parkchat The Salton Sea. I could see it from the Pacific Crest Trail last month (about 60 miles away) Definitely odd.

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A4: When explorers first reached the Great Salt Lake, they thought they found the Pacific ocean. I grew up not far from it but hardly ever go there. Its size is always a surprise. #ParkChat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A4) There's Montezuma Well near Sedona Arizona where there was an infamous tripping involving myself and @59NationalParks in 2017. 🙄 #ParkChat

A4. I loved the trout ponds and stream in the Whitewater Canyon unit of Sand to Snow NM in CA. #ParkChat

A4. How about a huge lake in one of the driest places in the world, Death Valley National Park? BTW, not something you'll see every day! #parkchat

A4 The Salton Sea. It was created by mistake. #parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A4. The salt flats in Bad Water Basin @DeathValleyNPS truly give the place an other-worldly feel. #ParkChat

A4 Anybody been on the Smith Spring trail @GuadalupeMtnsNP? Now that's an unexpected bit of water, with an even more little unexpected hardwood forest around it #parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A4. Not quite the answer you were going for, but--last year I drove across the Great Basin desert in Nevada. I saw my first water mirage. I kept thinking I should be reaching that water, where I would look for birds, and was fooled. Just like I had always read about. #parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute #parkchat A4 not sure which is more out of place. Lake Michigan or the Sand Dunes at @SleepingBearNPS. Not really a desert but. 😉

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A4 #ParkChat the Bonneville Salt Flats! Water in salty basins like that is insane, it's like a mirror. Salton Sea is pretty cool too

A4. The Mojave River in California's high desert. It runs just below ground much of the time, but you can track it by its cottonwoods. In Hesperia & Victorville area it runs above ground. In one big storm in the 1930 its flow almost reached Death Valley. #ParkChat
