Such a great time exploring! Thanks for picking me up!

The Salton Sea is a surreal and beautiful part of California.

Last time I was at Bombay was about 15-20 years ago, I sometimes wonder if I was the last person to launch a boat there. The guy running the campground was shocked to see someone show up with a boat, especially a fairly nice one, it was funny. Being there was a bit painful, but also pleasing, my dad and I used to go a lot in the late 80s and 90s. The amount of fish we pulled from that lake is unbelievable to most people today. We didn't get any fish on that last trip, but I enjoyed zipping across the lake one last time. I still go to the Sea fairly often when we go off-roading at Ocotillo Wells.

Went there in the early '70s with a friend who's mother owned a bar there called the Ski Inn. Use to catch Corvina there. There was and island there that was covered in Rattlesnakes.

Cool. Some new sculptures since I was there last. And it’s not been that long. Nice to see you two team up. You can get close to the mud pots.

Great video!!! I wonder if the Salton Sea will fill a bit with all this rain and snow California is getting. We can only dream 😴.

Probably not. It was created accidentally when the farmer’s canals/ water source burst, and the water flooded in. No new water feeds into the area.

Really enjoyed this video. Loved the artwork and mini volcanoes☺👍👍👍👍👍❤

What a treat for a Sunday morning 😊

Happy Sunday Morning!

The narrative during your visit to the "drive-in" was a riot! 🤣

amazing to see those volcanoes erupted and we can imagine same things how our magnificent mountains formed. they were once this tiny size

theres also that mud hole that keeps expanding near the freeway and they dont know why

Ty! Salton Sea is a weird/wild vibes spot. Often get Rotten egg smell from sea in Palm Springs.

That smell is from the volcano and not always the Sea itself. Usually when it "stinks" we have an earthquake the next day.

The boiling mud pots! Never expected that. The drone closeups were fascinating. Bombay Beach is basically an art installation with so much to explore. This episode with Josh looks like you had a blast. Thanks for exploring this location and taking all of us with you!

Loved going there to check out the cool stuff. I wanna go back there again

For a second I thought it was Adam The Woo on the side of the road. Bombay Beach is very eclectic. What an outstanding adventure!

KZread sent me here a few years ago and I have been watching your quirky California adventures ever since. You two have great chemistry together. Well Done!

I was just there a couple days ago and I have to say, the smell cannot be described. You're all brave for eating food while at Bombay Beach, personally I needed a full shower before touching anything consumable after walking around that place. Great video btw, love the content.

Great vid! Thanks for sharing!

Great video and collab with Josh. There is very few portrayol of this area as art and natural beauty. Your shots and videography is so vivid and alive. Now, I will be clicking on Josh's video.

I live in Salton City, which obviously is far less isolated and more populated, but THANK YOU for coming here with a NICE video...opposed to the incorrect narrative that this is a toxic, desolate wasteland...🙄. That gets annoying. I'm originally from the big city and never imagined I'd live here. I highly respect your nice, uplifting video, not just bashing it here. Thank you!!! 😎🙂

Love when you collaborate with Josh! Such a great adventure. I've always wanted to visit the Salton Sea area.

It's been 30 years since I've been to Bombay Beach. After watching this episode it's clear I need to go back! At the mudpots you were close to the Sony Bono Wildlife Refuge, one of the best places I've been to see burrowing owls. Happy trails!

We were just there yesterday! Eerie but yet so cool!

All right! A place I've never heard of but I've GOT to go to!! Even though it's down south at the other end of the state. Outstanding video and chatting!

The goofy collection of stuff at Bombay Beach was interesting, and it was a nice surprise to see Josh from the Through My Lens and California Through My Lens channels collaborating with you. (I subscribe to the first of Josh's two channels listed here.) Thanks, Bethany and Drew. Thumbs up. 👍

👍Nice video. That's a Interesting area with some cool art work. Nice to see Josh.

Drew is SOOO funny. Absolutely love the humor. Keep it up. You two are my favorite explorers yet.

You guys make me smile, a lot.

Cool video. We love exploring the Salton Sea Area. We’ve gone for many many years. You used to be able to stand right next to the mud pots. I need to look and see if I ever made a video with them years ago.

Fun!!

THAT WAS AN AWESOME INTRO. I LOVE JOSH AND HIS POPPAS ADVENTURES TOO. KEEP UP IT UP GUYS!

Haven't been there in years! Forgot about the Bombay Club. Real cool to see it all again. Take care you two.

Berkshire-Hathaway has 10 geothermal plants on then area off the geothermal mudpots. The brine will be converted to lithium for EV batteries. Enough to supply the US, and 40% of the world. I was there last August. Also, they Salton Yacht club, Sonny Bono NWR. Fascinating area. Nice collab with through the lens.

Thanks again, another good one Just wish notifications worked

went there a couple months back with a buddy were from the beaumont area i saw the ski inn bar on google and we had to check it out only bar and food reatraunt in town lors of places people just like got up and left from left all their belongings behind a boad a old 80s jaguar ect the people that live there are very nice steve at the bar has been there over 20years.

I think I have been to those mud volcanoes. In college I had to drop a class and was one unit short for being a full time student and found this weekend trip from a geology class. Basically toured around the Mohave and stopped at significant geology related places while taking copious notes. That was 11 years ago and cant remember much. One stop were probably these things. Also, stopped by a public shore spot on the Salton Sea was was nothing but fish bones, we stopped there to have a lecture about the naturally occurring obsidian at that spots. These were boulders of the stuff and they looked cool and I joked to the professor I should just come back here in a truck and take some home. He said you can, this is public land.

“OO” love your channel and content ❤❤ ✌️

About the same time I was thinking how cool it would be if you guys brought the drone, you knock it out of the park with the exact overhead drone shot that I was thinking of. Really enjoyed this episode with what would have been a rather boring cup of coffee. Thank you

Great video guys. When you visit places like that, you really have to approach from its history. Old pictures of different time lines and people who lived there, then I think you come away with a better vibe. Same with ghost towns and abandoned cities. Integrate the old footage or pictures right before, during or after in your superb filming. (Like the drive-in) This is the kind of thing people really dig and your numbers will really climb. One hundred grand is nothing. Good luck!

Could you tell me anything about HELENS BEACH that was popular with my family in in the 1960’s at Salton Sea ???

Great video! Now I know what I want to do for my birthday! And this was just 10 months ago so hopefully I can still see everything on your video in person. Do you need permission to go into any of these places? Also, beautiful shots of the volcanoes. Did you need permission to shoot there?

Fun fact. See the train going by behind you guys? Go back near those mud pots, by North Shore, its the lowest point of any railroad in the United States.

Re. the drive in? It should show *'Manos - The Hands of Fate'* over and over every night.

Very interesting video🥰 👍 19

Last time I watched a vlog from this place none of this stuff was shown and there was nothing but fish bones on the sand from all the fish that died... 🤔 Maybe I'm thinking of somewhere else

Look at you two getting into the collabs. Next you'll be running around with Justin Scarred (and Drew will be right at his level... maturity that is. Not sure about height. Justin seems rather tall).

Never been to California but if I did. I wouldn't want to see Hollywood. I wouldn't want to see the huge sequoia trees. Not the beautiful lake Tahoe. I would go to the nasty stinky Salton Sea and hang with the good folks there for sure.
