Located in the Mojave Desert, east of Barstow, CA, the Route 66 town of Newberry Springs was created thanks in part to underground water supplied by the Mojave River. But that same river is part of the reason a part of the town has been reclaimed by the desert, with houses becoming sand dunes.

In the northern part of Newberry Springs there was a neighborhood that was built in in the dry riverbed of the Mojave River, a river that travels most of its 110 miles underground. A combination of the placement of the houses, road management by the city, and over use of the underground water put this neighborhood in a constant battle with blowing sand. A battle they were doomed to lose.

In this video we travel to the buried neighborhood in Newberry Springs and explore sand dunes with the tops of houses and trees poking out of them.
