Located in the barren desert, this synthetic earthwork doubled as a recreational amenity, its form standing 30 feet from rim to low point and depressed ten feet into the earth. Its rough plywood structure, originally formwork for another project, Talus Dome, resembles a basin. Rock climbing holds on the interior allow visitors to descend into a deep pool of salt water, evoking abandoned suburban pools and ramshackle homestead dwellings scattered across the Mojave.
