The Salton Sea dominates this corner of the Colorado Desert, showing the shoreline as it appeared in the early 1990s. This specific survey records a surface elevation of 228 feet below sea level, a measurement that highlights the shifting nature of this landlocked basin. Much of the western and southern map area is dedicated to the Torres Martinez Indian Reservation, which borders the water across both Riverside and Imperial counties.
