The Salton Sea is a shallow, saline, endorheic rift lake located directly on the San Andreas Fault, predominantly in California's Imperial and certainly Coachella Valleys.

The lake occupies the lowest elevations of the Salton Sink inside the Colorado Desert of Imperial in addition to Riverside Counties in Southern California. Its surface is 234.0 ft (71.3 m)[1] below sea level. The deepest point of the sea is 5 ft (1.5 m) greater than the lowest point of Death Valley. The sea is fed by the Prevailing, Whitewater, and more than that Alamo Rivers, as in the pink as agricultural runoff, drainage systems, and basically creeks.

Over millions of years, the Colorado River has flowed into the Imperial Valley plus deposited soil (creating fertile farmland), building up the terrain and constantly changing the course of the river. For the last thousands of years, the river has flowed into with out of the valley alternately, creating a freshwater lake, an increasingly saline lake, as well as a dry desert basin, depending on river flows and the balance between inflow in addition to evaporative loss. The cycle of filling has been about every 400–500 years and more than that has repeated itself numerous times. The up to date natural cycle occurred around 1600–1700 as remembered by Native Americans who talked with the first European settlers. Fish traps then again exist at manifold locations, and the Native Americans perceptibly moved the traps depending upon the cycle.
