Tea Kettle Tree House


Out in the middle of the playa, close to our camp, was this large, two-storey tree house made out of metal. The whole structure was sort of a giant pressure cooker. When it was running, the steam would continually build and release pressure, with the steam leaking out of certain pipes causing a whistling sound, like a giant tea kettle. This whistling sound was very loud, and could be heard from quite a distance, sounding similar to a steam train.
