A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .
Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.ivan

Video: What an Earthquake in Mexico Did to a Cave in Death Valley National Park

A 7.4 earthquake in Mexico last month sent a shockwave to Death Valley National Park where scientists witnessed a sight not many have -- and they caught it on video.
The shaking at Devils Hole, a water-filled subterranean cave on the Nevada side of the park, began about 10 minutes after the temblor struck Oaxaca on March 20. At first, the impact on the water level was subtle, but became more dramatic over the next few minutes. The whole event last about 20 minutes.
"There are more people that have walked on the moon than have witnessed an earthquake event at Devils Hole," said Kevin Wilson, an aquatic ecologist for the park.
As described by a park news release...
... staff observed algae slough off the walls of the chamber, followed by water bubbles, swooshing sounds and swirling water. The water became turbid and the smell of sulfur filled the air. The water level ranged more than 5 ft. in total (~2.5 in either direction) throughout the event. The rising water level increased causing waves to rush along top of a shallow shelf and crash against the adjacent wall.
Wilson believes there is no long-term damage to the pupfish that populate the hole. In all, there are only around 100 of the endemic and endangered Cyprinodon diabolis, or Devils Hole pupfish. This U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service video from 2011 explains more about the desert species:
