Gigantic Waterway Under the Western US?


Or, did they go undergound during seismic activity?

There is a theory floating around that there is an underground waterway that a single submarine can traverse from the California coastline to Nevada.

The Paiutes told a tale of the ancient giants who lived in Death Valley when there was water there. These giants lived up high in the mountains which were island tops in the water and they retreated into the caves up there as their housing. 

The Native People explained in their legend that when the water "left," the giants went into the caves and underground. 




There has been talk for some time about there being a possible waterway that leads from the California coast, up to Nevada. One person points out that in Hawthorne, Nevada there is a Navy munitions storage site built in WWII Era.


(Signs like this one above don't help quell the rumors) 









Interestingly, one outdoor adventurer I know mentioned drillings abandoned in California that led one to come to the conclusion they had hit an underwater lake or river. In fact, this person was in talks about the potential to be the first to raft that waterway. Should such a thing come to be, I'd certainly want to cover that happening! 

Being involved in the oil business, I'd say the gamma ray, electrical and radiation logs would should whether there was a vast waterway down there or not and oil producers do not work on a lease without logs to tell them what is below the surface.

  1. The explorers only traveled so far making California look like an Island.

    1. Yeah, if you went up the Baja waterway, after a time, you'd be certain that land on the left was just an island. There was in the distant past, no doubt, water in the lowlands of California where they now have vegetable growing valleys, they know they had water into Death Valley and up into Nevada's Lake Lohantan. But that was loooong before any explorers arrived.
