This is the bizarre
Spiral Jetty, a huge piece of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_Art land art on the
northeastern shore of the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Salt_Lake Great Salt
Lake in Utah. Built of mud, salt crystals, basalt rocks and
earth, it forms a 1500 foot long (~450 metre), 15-foot wide
counterclockwise coil, which extends from the lake shore. It was
actually entirely submerged by rising lake waters for many years,
but due to lowering water levels, has since re-emerged.

Spiral Jetty was built all the way back in 1970 by the late
American sculptor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Smithson Robert
Smithson, who also created some other pieces of land art which
are still visible on Google Earth, including the 1971 piece
Spiral Hill, Broken Circle in Emmen, Holland.
