Salvation Mountain Slab City, CA

Hopefully the above picture doesn't make you squint to much. I am still exploring the Slabs will be getting pictures up shortly. Salvation mountain is located at the entrance to the Slabs, this place is amazing, as I walked around exploring I cant help but say wow, and I heard several others saying the same as well. Regardless of what your religious beliefs, it is definitely a site to be seen. Leonard can no longer work on his vision, due to health reason's. Here's some more pics....

Tons of old windows mounted in the mountain.

    1. Thanks Dan. Tough to say maybe 700 to 1000 people at the Slabs? Back to Tucson to spend some time with the family before spring sets in.
