A short explanation of the expansion of Los Angeles and the destruction of the Owens River and Valley. Many Paiute Indians lived in Yosemite and Hetch Hetchy but were pushed out as Yosemite became a park and Hetch Hetchy was dammed and the water diverted to San Francisco. Many Yosemite-Mono Lake Paiutes were swindled out of their water rights around these and other ancestral areas for the new gold, water. Many Paiutes who were forced out of Yosemite, Hetch Hetchy and the Mono Lake area and were promised farm land around Owens Lake. Later after some Paiutes settled with the Owens Valley Paiutes this water was taken for the expansion of the City of Los Angeles. Paiutes used to irrigate the area for taboose and wai, native plants that we Paiutes used to cultivate and eat. Clara (Hess) Rambeau, Yosemite-Mono Lake and Owen's Valley Paiute. Granddaughter of Paiute Young Charlie and Great-Granddaughter of Paiute Captain Jim of Bridgeport and Hetch Hetchy area speaks about the Native American Paiute angle to this story. Paiute means "Water Ute", but we are Indians without water.

When the Los Angeles Aqueduct diverted the water from the Owens River in 1924, the Owens Lake dried up. Most dry lakes have been dry for thousands of years, but because the Owens Lake dried so recently, that it has become a serious source of air pollution whenever the wind blows. It is estimated that 900,000-8,000,000 metric tons of alkali dust particles are blown into the air each year, making the Owens Lake the largest source of PM10 air pollution in the county. Because the particles are less than 10 microns, residents of the area suffer from respiratory ailments. Los Angeles has been charged with mitigating the dust, and does so by shallow flooding and the planting of salt grass. The project has significantly decreased the dust problem, and this dust storm, still hazardous to local residents, is probably smaller than it would have been before 2001.

Owens Lake is a mostly dry lake in the Owens Valley on the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada in Inyo County, California. It is located about 5 miles (8.0 km) south of Lone Pine, California. Unlike most dry lakes in the Basin and Range Province that have been dry for thousands of years, Owens held significant water until 1924, until much of the Owens River was diverted into the Los Angeles Aqueduct, causing it to desiccate. Today, some of the flow of the river has been restored, and the lake now contains some water.
Before the diversion of the Owens River, Owens Lake was up to 12 miles (19 km) long and 8 miles (13 km) wide, covering an area of up to 108 square miles (280 km2). In the last few hundred years the lake had an average depth of 23 to 50 feet (7.0 to 15 m), and sometimes overflowed to the south upon which the water would flow into the Mojave Desert.
It is thought that in the late Pleistocene about 11-12,000 years ago Owens Lake was even larger, covering nearly 200 square miles (520 km2) and reaching a depth of 200 feet (61 m). The increased inflow from the Owens River, from melting glaciers of the post-Ice Age Sierra Nevada, caused Owens Lake to overflow south through Rose Valley into another now-dry lakebed, China Lake, in the Indian Wells Valley near Ridgecrest, California. After the glaciers melted, the lake waters receded, and this accelerated with human exploitation of the lake even before the Los Angeles Aqueduct was built, due to Owens Valley farmers who had already appropriated most of the Owens River's tributaries flow, causing the lake level to drop slightly each year.

James Wilson-April 25th 2015-Owens Lake Bird Festival
67 years old Date of birth: Jun 22, 1948 Date of passing: Jul 15, 2015 Yesterday I took a walk in the mountains with friends. It seemed the most appropriate and best thing to do. So we carried James and Kay in our hearts as we walked. Behind us not far from the trailhead, a Hermit Thrush started to sing, a bird heard many times through many miles with James and Kay in the Sierra. As we walked up the trail, its song followed us. I turned around to try and find movement in the lodgepoles but saw none and kept going. The song continued to follow. Turning again, the beauty landed just over our heads on an open branch and sang and sang the beautiful harmonic ethereal other worldly song. In all my years, never has a hermit thrush landed in plain view and sang. It made me cry. We continued. Seven... -

A short explanation of the expansion of Los Angeles and the destruction of the Owens River and Valley. Many Paiute Indians lived in Yosemite and Hetch Hetchy but were pushed out as Yosemite became a park and Hetch Hetchy was dammed and the water diverted to San Francisco. Many Yosemite-Mono Lake Paiutes were swindled out of their water rights around these and other ancestral areas for the new gold, water. Many Paiutes who were forced out of Yosemite, Hetch Hetchy and the Mono Lake area and were promised farm land around Owens Lake. Later after some Paiutes settled with the Owens Valley Paiutes this water was taken for the expansion of the City of Los Angeles. Paiutes used to irrigate the area for taboose and wai, native plants that we Paiutes used to cultivate and eat. Clara (Hess) Rambeau, Yosemite-Mono Lake and Owen's Valley Paiute. Granddaughter of Paiute Young Charlie and Great-Granddaughter of Paiute Captain Jim of Bridgeport and Hetch Hetchy area speaks about the Native American Paiute angle to this story. Paiute means "Water Ute", but we are Indians without water.

When the Los Angeles Aqueduct diverted the water from the Owens River in 1924, the Owens Lake dried up. Most dry lakes have been dry for thousands of years, but because the Owens Lake dried so recently, that it has become a serious source of air pollution whenever the wind blows. It is estimated that 900,000-8,000,000 metric tons of alkali dust particles are blown into the air each year, making the Owens Lake the largest source of PM10 air pollution in the county. Because the particles are less than 10 microns, residents of the area suffer from respiratory ailments. Los Angeles has been charged with mitigating the dust, and does so by shallow flooding and the planting of salt grass. The project has significantly decreased the dust problem, and this dust storm, still hazardous to local residents, is probably smaller than it would have been before 2001.

67 years old
Date of birth: Jun 22, 1948
Date of passing: Jul 15, 2015
Yesterday I took a walk in the mountains with friends. It seemed the most appropriate and best thing to do. So we carried James and Kay in our hearts as we walked. Behind us not far from the trailhead, a Hermit Thrush started to sing, a bird heard many times through many miles with James and Kay in the Sierra. As we walked up the trail, its song followed us. I turned around to try and find movement in the lodgepoles but saw none and kept going. The song continued to follow. Turning again, the beauty landed just over our heads on an open branch and sang and sang the beautiful harmonic ethereal other worldly song. In all my years, never has a hermit thrush landed in plain view and sang. It made me cry. We continued. Seven hours later we returned. The beauty was in the same tree and singing. I think from now on I will call our beautiful mountains "Jamesland." Sing on, James.

The board and staff at Inyo Council of the Arts are deeply saddened to learn of the loss of James Wilson. Our hearts go out to Kay, Rose, Bayard, Ansel, and all of those who were touched by James. In addition to James’ love for wild places and the Eastern Sierra, he was also a champion of music and art. James and Kay brought the Banff Film Festival to Bishop 20+ years ago as a fundraiser for the Millpond Music Festival. We don’t know if Millpond would be celebrating its 24th year without their efforts. We were proud to dedicate the 2007 Millpond Festival to James and Kay. In addition to the many thousands of dollars donated over the years, James shared our passion for bringing world class music and film to our remote area that he loved so much. James loved that his support brought performers from around the world to all of our local schools to share their art and cultures with Inyo County students. His easy approach to life, love for his family and community, and generous spirit inspire us all. His impact on the Arts Council, and the entire Eastern Sierra is immeasurable. Thank you Mr. Wilson, we love and will miss you immensely.

Video flight with my $90 WLToys V262 Cyclone quadcopter ($80 for US customers, click on US warehouse to get price ). This is a great quadcopter for simple, cheap, and easy aerial video tasks. It can lift this Mobius actioncam, and also the GoPro Hero 3 video cameras. WLToys V262 Quadcopter http://www.banggood.com/WLtoys-V262-Cyclone-2_4G-4CH-6-Axis-RC-Quadcopter-With-Camera-RTF-p-77720.html?p=RB0922217402201307U3

This flight location is Owens Lake near Olancha California. Up until 1924 this was a huge lake, fed by water from the Sierra Nevada mountains in the background. But Los Angeles needed water, and around that time most of the runoff from the mountains was diverted to LA. The result is this dry lake and surrounding desert that you see today. Anyways, the background mountains seen in this video are some of the highest in the Sierra Nevadas, along with the United States. One of those peaks in the background is Mount Whitney. By the way, we saw the bleached bones of some large animal laying in the sand during our hike out to this location :o And here is that exact location: https://www.google.com/maps/@36.3778041,-117.8863873,198m/data=!3m1!1e3
As I always recommend, beginners please consider this cheaper option to learn to fly on before purchasing an expensive high-end quadcopter such as DJI Phantom or even AR Parrot. Keep in mind that crashing is inevitable for all RC beginners (it's a right of passage). The V262 is somewhat durable, as is the Phantom. But stuff happens. It also takes time learning to maintain orientation on a quadcopter. Losing orientation in flight can lead to bad results. Would you like to risk a $100 or a $1000 quadcopter while learning to fly? Once you're comfortable flying, then consider the higher-end models (that is if you're still interested).
