We need to leave NOW! Camping at a Toxic Lake (living in my camper van) - RV LIFE

Camping at a toxic lake was worse than we thought and we had to leave living in my camper van - RV Life. We travel in our camper van to a toxic lake (Salton Sea) and explore the forgotten resort town of Bombay Beach, as well as desolate campgrounds along the toxic lake. The Salton City has turned into a poisonous lake, killing almost all of its fish due to the toxicity of the water. The forgotten resort town of Bombay Beach was at one time a popular vacation destination where Frank Sinatra once visited and performed. We had planned to camp overnight along the shores of the toxic lake, but we discovered that it was worse than we thought. This was an RV life experience that we will never forget living in our camper van.

Thanks for visiting the Salton Sea--my childhood stomping grounds! My father raced boats there and won trophies. We camped there as often as possible, and the grown-ups skied for days. We had to wear shoes to get into the water because the salt crystallized into sharp stalagmites along the sea bed. They were as sharp as razor blades. We had such fun in the late '50s and early '60s.

Hi Tanya and Dave, 😢 What a place? It's SO SAD! As much as I always admire you two, well I'll leave this one alone! Please Be Safe and I'll Pray for The "Spirit of Protection" for the both of you and the kitties! 😻 I look forward to the next video! TO THE BEST COUPLE 👩‍❤️‍👨 IN THE WORLD! 🌎

We use to go there in the 60’s with my grandparents. We had so much fun! We would swim and fish, skied. I remember Grandma always made sure we were well bathed to get the salt off of us before bed! It was so fun. Sad to think it’s all gone. I remember the sand from when I was a kid. Not like normal beach sand. Great memories!

As a teen living in southern California in the '70s, I remember some of the infomercials on TV showing the resorts on Salton Sea, people skiing and the celebrities who visited them...a lot of talk of "America's Riviera." Sad to see what it's become, though I still enjoy camping in the area.

Tanya and Dave Always informative, a lovable fun couple! 👍

[carmonhendrickson]

The Saltan Sea is a place you go to then suddenly realize why no one is there. Adventure on, you are so fun to follow.

[lashondajones]

Tanya and Dave! Love the video and loved seeing you on @That Crazy Disney Lady Live stream the other day! I’m happy to see you guys are still hitting the pavement and driving those miles traveling the States ❤ Til the next video 😊

[josephinebustos]

When I was there last year, only a handful of campers too and also a few people picnicking by the beach.

[nancylowery]

Love a Patty Melt!! Omg that looks Great!!! I am.a bit jealous and hungary!!!😁

[tamarabeck]

A few years ago my son and DIL took me to that little town to listen and participate in a live radio show visiting from Arizona. It took place at that bar/restaurant on the back patio with maybe 100 show followers. I too have a dollar bill with our names on it at one of the booths. At that time there were several homes folks were living in full times. We enjoyed an epic sunset that evening then headed to our hotel in Palm Desert.

Saw you on the Lectric bike site. Can’t wait to follow your journey. Thanks.

[deniseewoolfolkfreeman]

[lynnfiegl]

Don’t think I would stay there if it smelled like dead fish! Happy Camping and Safe Travels!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️😺😺

[Lisforpeace]

Thanks for taking us to the not so hot venues❤

[wanderingjimmy]

Hello from Bombay Beach! It was fun to meet you guys. Glad you enjoyed those patty melts (epic cheese pull!) Stop in and see us again sometime. Safe travels! Jimmy from the Ski Inn ✌️

[karnubawax]

There is truly nothing like Bombay Beach in August when it is 107 degrees.
It's the closest thing to experiencing hell without actually going there.

Another great video. Thank you for sharing another part of the world but for ye two we would never see. Love you guys. Keep safe. Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪

I camped at that campground in Dec 2014! The whole area looks so different in this video than when we were there. It smelled some but not as bad as it must now bc we spent one night there. Walking on the bones is kinda creepy and kinda cool. We actually rented a kayak and took it out on the lake and paddled around it which was really cool but definitely avoided getting in the water. It’s amazing how quickly it is changing.
