Lake Abert in Oregon is yet another casualty of the longstanding drought that has scorched the western U.S. states over the past few years. It has dried up so much that not even shrimp can survive.

The salty lake has all but disappeared, reaching its driest levels in 2021 and 2022 since at least 1979, with NASA Landsat imagery recently showing how much the water levels have decreased over the last 20 years. Water levels dropped below the lowest possible measure on the gauge in 2019, and have not increased past this point since. On average, the lake is usually around 7 feet deep.
