Owens Valley
Owens Valley is the arid valley of the Owens River in eastern California in the United States, to the east of the Sierra Nevada and west of the White Mountains and Inyo Mountains on the west edge of the Great Basin section. The mountain peaks on either side (including Mount Whitney) reach above 14,000 feet (4,300 m) in elevation, while the floor of the Owens Valley is at 4,000 feet (1,200 m), making the valley one of the deepest in the United States. The Sierra Nevada casts the valley in a rain shadow, which makes Owens Valley "the Land of Little Rain." The bed of Owens Lake, now a predominantly dry endorheic alkali flat, sits on the southern end of the valley.
The valley provides water to the Los Angeles Aqueduct, the source of half of the water for Los Angeles, and is infamous as the scene of one of the fiercest and longest running episodes of the California Water Wars. These episodes inspired aspects of the film Chinatown.
Towns in the Owens Valley include Bishop, Lone Pine, Independence and Big Pine. The major road in the valley is U.S. Route 395.

Owens River
The Owens River is a river in southeastern California in the United States, approximately 183 miles (295 km) long. It drains into and through the Owens Valley, an arid basin between the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada and the western faces of the Inyo and White Mountains. The river terminates at the endorheic Owens Lake south of Lone Pine, at the bottom of a 2,600 sq mi (6,700 km2) watershed.
In the early 1900s the Owens was the focus of the California Water Wars, fought between the city of Los Angeles and the inhabitants of Owens Valley over the construction of the Los Angeles Aqueduct. Since 1913, the Owens River has been diverted to Los Angeles, causing the ruin of the valley's economy and the drying of Owens Lake. In winter 2006, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power restored 5% of the pre-aqueduct flow to the river, by court order, allowing the Owens River Gorge, the river bed in the valley, and Owens Lake to contain a small amount of water.

Valley
A valley is a low area between hills, often with a river running through it.
In geology, a valley or dale is a depression that is longer than it is wide. The terms U-shaped and V-shaped are descriptive terms of geography to characterize the form of valleys. Most valleys belong to one of these two main types or a mixture of them, (at least) with respect to the cross section of the slopes or hillsides.
Valley terminology
A valley in its broadest geographic sense is also known as a dale. A valley through which a river runs may also be referred to as a vale. A small, secluded, and often wooded valley is known as a dell or in Scotland as a glen. A wide, flat valley through which a river runs is known in Scotland as a strath. A mountain cove is a small valley, closed at one or both ends, in the central or southern Appalachian Mountains which sometimes results from the erosion of a geologic window. A small valley surrounded by mountains or ridges is sometimes known as a hollow. A deep, narrow valley is known as a cwm (also spelled combe or coombe). Similar geological structures, such as canyons, ravines, gorges, gullies, and kloofs, are not usually referred to as valleys. See also: "chine". A valley formed by erosion is called an erosional valley; a valley formed by geologic events such as drop faults or the rise of highlands is called a structural valley.

Photographing the Deepest Valley in the US (Owens Valley Adventure, Part 1)
The Owens Valley in eastern California lies between two 14,000-foot mountain ranges, the Sierra and the Whites. The Owens Valley floor is at an elevation of 4,000 ft, making this 10,000-foot deep valley the deepest in the United States. It is full of remarkable scenery and is a playground for landscape photography. In this 3-part adventure I go searching for rarely-seen arches in the Alabama Hills.

How Los Angeles Stole Its Water: A Complete History of The Los Angeles Aqueduct
Completed on November 5, 1913, the 233-mile Los Angeles Aqueduct stretches all the way from California’s Owens Valley to the city of Los Angeles – delivering somewhere in the neighborhood of 260-millions gallons of water per day to a thirsty city. The aqueduct stands as a testament to early 20th-century engineering might, however, the project set off a decades-long civil war between Owens Valley farmers and Los Angeles. Built to meet the increasing demands of a rapidly growing city, the Los Angeles Aqueduct has a history plagued with deception, corruption, and death.

Expansion of L. A. - Destruction of Owens River & Valley
A short explanation of the expansion of Los Angeles and the destruction of the Owens River and Valley. Many Paiute Indians lived in Yosemite and Hetch Hetchy but were pushed out as Yosemite became a park and Hetch Hetchy was dammed and the water diverted to San Francisco. Many Yosemite-Mono Lake Paiutes were swindled out of their water rights around these and other ancestral areas for the new gold, water. Many Paiutes who were forced out of Yosemite, Hetch Hetchy and the Mono Lake area and were promised farm land around Owens Lake. Later after some Paiutes settled with the Owens Valley Paiutes this water was taken for the expansion of the City of Los Angeles. Paiutes used to irrigate the area for taboose and wai, native plants that we Paiutes used to cultivate and eat. Clara (Hess) Rambeau...

How Los Angeles Dried Up Owens Valley’s ‘Indian Ditches’ | Tending Nature | KCET
Tribal elders and water experts offer a window into the history of water in Owens Valley and how it ran dry. Members of two northern Paiute tribes describe the lush valley where their tribes survived for thousands of years. This changed quickly with the growing presence of settlers and the growing thirst of the city that became Los Angeles. Through a complex system of reservoirs, canals and aqueducts, the metropolis siphons and pumps unprecedented amounts of surface and groundwater, further exacerbating unresolved water rights issues that tribal members deal with on a daily basis.

In this video, I break down the entire history of the Los Angeles Aqueduct and take a look at the three main people who made it happen: William Mulholland, Frederick Eaton, and Joseph “J.B.” Lippincott. The motivations and decisions of these three men from over 100 years ago allowed Los Angeles to support its exponential population growth, but not without deadly consequences. The St. Francis Dam, completed in 1926, was one of the crown jewels of the Los Angeles Aqueduct. However, just 2 years later in 1928, the dam catastrophically failed, killing at least 431 people. To this day, the St. Francis Dam disaster is considered the worst American civil engineering disasters of the 20th century.
The Los Angeles Aqueduct allowed the city of Los Angeles to become the sprawling metropolis we know today, but the lingering sociopolitical and environmental impacts are hard to overlook.

Tribal elders and water experts offer a window into the history of water in Owens Valley and how it ran dry.
Members of two northern Paiute tribes describe the lush valley where their tribes survived for thousands of years. This changed quickly with the growing presence of settlers and the growing thirst of the city that became Los Angeles. Through a complex system of reservoirs, canals and aqueducts, the metropolis siphons and pumps unprecedented amounts of surface and groundwater, further exacerbating unresolved water rights issues that tribal members deal with on a daily basis.

The Owens Valley in eastern California lies between two 14,000-foot mountain ranges, the Sierra and the Whites. The Owens Valley floor is at an elevation of 4,000 ft, making this 10,000-foot deep valley the deepest in the United States. It is full of remarkable scenery and is a playground for landscape photography. In this 3-part adventure I go searching for rarely-seen arches in the Alabama Hills. But first, here in Part 1, I chase sunrise light along the Owens River.
Parts 2 & 3 coming soon.

Completed on November 5, 1913, the 233-mile Los Angeles Aqueduct stretches all the way from California’s Owens Valley to the city of Los Angeles – delivering somewhere in the neighborhood of 260-millions gallons of water per day to a thirsty city. The aqueduct stands as a testament to early 20th-century engineering might, however, the project set off a decades-long civil war between Owens Valley farmers and Los Angeles. Built to meet the increasing demands of a rapidly growing city, the Los Angeles Aqueduct has a history plagued with deception, corruption, and death.

In this video, I break down the entire history of the Los Angeles Aqueduct and take a look at the three main people who made it happen: William Mulholland, Frederick Eaton, and Joseph “J.B.” Lippincott. The motivations and decisions of these three men from over 100 years ago allowed Los Angeles to support its exponential population growth, but not without deadly consequences. The St. Francis Dam, completed in 1926, was one of the crown jewels of the Los Angeles Aqueduct. However, just 2 years later in 1928, the dam catastrophically failed, killing at least 431 people. To this day, the St. Francis Dam disaster is considered the worst American civil engineering disasters of the 20th century.
The Los Angeles Aqueduct allowed the city of Los Angeles to become the sprawling metropolis we know today, but the lingering sociopolitical and environmental impacts are hard to overlook.

We took a drive out to the Owens River at Benton Crossing Road to see the flow of the Upper Owens in the Long Valley. The meadow has never been greener and the water flows in multiple streams throughout the meadow as seen from the aerial views of my DJI drone.

A short explanation of the expansion of Los Angeles and the destruction of the Owens River and Valley. Many Paiute Indians lived in Yosemite and Hetch Hetchy but were pushed out as Yosemite became a park and Hetch Hetchy was dammed and the water diverted to San Francisco. Many Yosemite-Mono Lake Paiutes were swindled out of their water rights around these and other ancestral areas for the new gold, water. Many Paiutes who were forced out of Yosemite, Hetch Hetchy and the Mono Lake area and were promised farm land around Owens Lake. Later after some Paiutes settled with the Owens Valley Paiutes this water was taken for the expansion of the City of Los Angeles. Paiutes used to irrigate the area for taboose and wai, native plants that we Paiutes used to cultivate and eat. Clara (Hess) Rambeau, Yosemite-Mono Lake and Owen's Valley Paiute. Granddaughter of Paiute Young Charlie and Great-Granddaughter of Paiute Captain Jim of Bridgeport and Hetch Hetchy area speaks about the Native American Paiute angle to this story. Paiute means "Water Ute", but we are Indians without water.

Tribal elders and water experts offer a window into the history of water in Owens Valley and how it ran dry.
Members of two northern Paiute tribes describe the lush valley where their tribes survived for thousands of years. This changed quickly with the growing presence of settlers and the growing thirst of the city that became Los Angeles. Through a complex system of reservoirs, canals and aqueducts, the metropolis siphons and pumps unprecedented amounts of surface and groundwater, further exacerbating unresolved water rights issues that tribal members deal with on a daily basis.

Owens Valley
Owens Valley is the arid valley of the Owens River in eastern California in the United States, to the east of the Sierra Nevada and west of the White Mountains and Inyo Mountains on the west edge of the Great Basin section. The mountain peaks on either side (including Mount Whitney) reach above 14,000 feet (4,300 m) in elevation, while the floor of the Owens Valley is at 4,000 feet (1,200 m), making the valley one of the deepest in the United States. The Sierra Nevada casts the valley in a rain shadow, which makes Owens Valley "the Land of Little Rain." The bed of Owens Lake, now a predominantly dry endorheic alkali flat, sits on the southern end of the valley.
The valley provides water to the Los Angeles Aqueduct, the source of half of the water for Los Angeles, and is infamous as the scene of one of the fiercest and longest running episodes of the California Water Wars. These episodes inspired aspects of the film Chinatown.
Towns in the Owens Valley include Bishop, Lone Pine, Independence and Big Pine. The major road in the valley is U.S. Route 395.

Who will save the river valley? That's my drinking water
This was once a sacred place now, look at what we've got here
I'll pretend there isn't any problem, just do my job
And if I don't like the standard of living, go move to Russia...
(Dave & Jian)
Me and Pete went swimming last night, he's my friend from boy scouts
All the fish were floating upright, we got scared, and we got out
(Dave, w/ rest backing up certain phrases)
Mother says don't play down where your father does his job
And though he's got to make living, or move to Russia...
(Jian)
this is my world, this is my world, don't let it go away
is it a crime, spending my time, dreaming of yesterday
(Dave & Jian)
Meet me in the river valley, you can tell me stories
'Bout a time before pinstripe suits, dippers, grits, and tories
(Mike)
My mother sang the songs her mother taught her
and we'd be swimming off in cool, cool water
and when she'd call us from the yard
running home it felt like god...
(All)
This is my world, don't take it away...
(Dave & Jian)
Is your favourite place controlled by developing ambitions?
Do you think you'll have some power signing a petition?
Are you fine with your surroundings? Are they gonna crumble?
I'm living in the river valley, come and join me for a tumble!
(Mike)
High up above, see the cars up on the viaduct
from sunrise to the last call - they push their luck
and that would be fine
if the world was yours, and you were mine
(All) (Mike)
Who will save the river valley? (this is my world)
