I read about Leonard Knight's salvation mountain several years ago in the book Weird U.S. For some reason I have always been strangely fascinated with this piece. Apparently it was originally built on a riverbank with cement, sand, paint and trash found at the dump. The original structure eventually collapsed because too much sand had been mixed with the cement however, Knight worked to build a new and more sturdy Salvation Mountain using adobe clay, straw and donated paint. The mountain has been an ongoing project for 23 years.
