  • Sonny Bono Salton Sea Wildlife Refuge (EL -227ft), located along the course of the Pacific Flyway in the Imperial Valley of California.  Flooding by the Salton Sea has reduced the manageable area from 36,700 acres to 2,200 acres.  Dykes (dikes) now limit further encroachment.

  • Continuous pumping is required from a system of channels and dikes around the Salton Sea to limit flooding of farmlands, a wildlife refuge and nearby geothermal energy plants.  The Sonny Bono Salton Sea Wildlife Refuge (EL -227ft) is located along the course of the Pacific Flyway in the Imperial Valley of California.  Flooding by the Salton Sea has reduced the manageable area from 36,700 acres to 2,200 acres.  The dikes now limit further encroachment.

  • Snow-Reed Bridge (1925) is the oldest bridge in Fort Lauderdale, and the last operational swing span bridge surviving in South Florida. In 1989, 64 years after construction, it was designated a historic landmark and renamed from the Southwest 11th Avenue Bridge to Snow-Reed Bridge, for the two mayors whose terms spanned its 1924-5 construction. The bridge spans the North Fork of the New River and was constructed on the north-south alignment of SW 11th Avenue, connecting the neighborhoods of Riverside and Sailboat Bend. The structure is a Warren Pony Swing Metal Truss – the Pony part being simply a through truss that lacks overhead cross-bracing between the top chords. Nice cantilevered sidewalks appear to have been added at some point. The bridge has no practical vertical clearance, while it obstructs a navigable river, so an on-site bridge operator is required 24/7. A one-year major renovation ending in 2010 added a new octagonal-shaped bridge tender control house while retaining and restoring the original bridge tender’s house. Notable also is this old bridge’s vulnerability to sea-level rise; its swing mechanics are set just inches above sea water tide levels, so the mechanics are repeatedly submerged in salt water. Broward County, Florida, USA.

  • Wave-washed Saint George Reef Lighthouse (12km distant), the only thing not in motion in a gale-lashed Pacific Ocean off the coast of northern California near Crescent City. The light marks the outer extents of a treacherous bank of shoal areas, rocks and breakers, about 3nm wide by 6.5nm out to sea, named "Dragon Rocks" by Sir Francis Drake and now "St George Reef" on current navigation charts. The location for the lighthouse was selected in 1865 after numerous notable losses, but construction was not completed until 1892 due to the obvious logistical and weather challenges. The most expensive lighthouse ever built in the USA. Manned and operated until 1975, when it was replaced by a nearby floating navigation light. The lighthouse was finally abandoned in 1995. Seen here from Point Saint George, in a rare view between fronts in an early winter storm. Very challenging getting any photograph at all in such fierce conditions of salt spray, rain and gale! Del Norte County, California, USA.
