Imperial County, CA

Valley of the Names






This was amazing - just a short drive outside of Yuma.  People spell out their names and messages with rocks.  It started about 50 years ago.  The oldest one we found was done in 1966.  There must be over 1000 of them scattered over the small hills.  What amazed us the most was that no one has destroyed them.  We plan to go back with some grocery bags to gather rocks to spell out our names.  Stay tuned for a picture of that in the future.
