<b>Needles, CA</b>The Colorado River marks the California/Arizona border. As the river winds south, it picks up salinity from water withdrawals and evaporation from reservoirs. Reaching the border, water is so salty that it must run through a desalinization plant in order to cross into Mexico. By the time the river reaches the Gulf of California where it lets out, it is virtually empty.  Ref #: 050214-0079
