Overview
Salvation Mountain is a colorful folk-art hillside in the Southern California desert near Niland and Slab City, north of the Salton Sea. Created by Leonard Knight (1931–2014) from adobe, straw, tires and thousands of gallons of paint, it is covered in murals and Christian messages, and visitors can walk its painted paths.
