Near the entrance to Slab City. You can walk to the top. I guess it's art--depending on how you define art. But worth the visit!
I had been in California for about a year and came across a website called http://www.weirdca.com/ there is a couple different sites, but they are full of the weird! This little mountain is my first of the weird in California! You have to go! Enjoy.
The artwork is made from adobe, straw, and thousands of gallons of lead-free paint. Salvation Mountain was created by local resident Leonard Knight (1931–2014).[1] It encompasses numerous murals and areas painted with Christian sayings and Bible verses, though its philosophy was built around the Sinner's Prayer.

Overall a very comfortable stay, it would have been an added perk if there was some bfast available. Note for EV drivers, charging is not free and it will charge you for parking after charging is complete.

It was our first time at Bombay Beach. Unfortunately it had rained so much it was too mucky to explore as much as we wanted. Tao was very communicative & we had everything we needed.
