Summary
[edit]DescriptionAbert Lake, Oregon (8080389621).jpg |
Lake Abert is Oregon’s only saltwater lake. And though it’s a desolate place, it’s also a popular stopover for migratory waterfowl. Located near Valley Falls in south-central Oregon, the Chewaucan River flows into Abert Lake, but no water flows out. Thus minerals are allowed to concentrate in the water. The water is very salty but supports a population of brine shrimp. And who doesn’t love shrimp? Abert Rim in Lake County, Oregon, is one of the highest fault scarps in the United States. It rises 2500 feet above the valley floor, finishing with an 800-foot sheer-sided basalt cap. Abert Rim was formed during the Miocene epoch when basaltic flood lavas covered much of eastern Oregon. Stretching more than 30 miles from Lakeview to Alkali Lake, Abert Rim is also the longest exposed fault scarp in North America. |
