Have you seen this glass beach (california).check this,its amazing!!!!!!!

in #travel7 years ago


This beach was at california.In  1906, Fort Bragg residents established an official water dump site behind the Union Lumber company onto what is now known as "Site 1". Most water fronted communities had water dump sites discarding glass, appliances, and even vehicles.Locals referred to it as "The Dump" Fires were often lit to reduce the size of the trash pile.


  The California State water Resources Control Board and city leaders closed this area in 1967. Various cleanup programs were undertaken through the years to correct the damage. Over the next several decades, what was biodegradable in the dump sites simply degraded and all the metal and other items were eventually removed and sold as scrap or used in art. The pounding waves broke down the glass and pottery and tumbled those pieces into the small, smooth, colored pieces that often become jewelry quality and that cover Glass Beach and the other two glass beaches (former dump sites) in Fort Bragg.



Go and have fun in this beach!!!
