Imperial Dunes

I'd almost forgotten that I took some pics from the car on my way from Yuma to San Diego on Friday. The area lies roughly south of Salton Sea, and is called Imperial Sand Dunes. Just to give y'all a little indication that California ain't all palm trees and beaches and movie stars and shit... though the scenes from Tatooine (Star Wars) and the alien planet in Stargate were filmed here.

So effin dry.






Proper sand dunes, wheeee!


And an irrigation channel running through it.
