I know its still there but some of it just disappeared with only leaving sea shells.

Geological movement over the years cut off it's source and outlet, thus isolating the Salton Sea. Water evaporates but the salt doesn't.

It was there before it was an island.

Most sand is composed of silicon dioxide (quartz) which is very resistant to acids and abrasion, and that is also the reason beaches have sand. Whether the erosional force is air or water, most other materials are more easily removed, leaving behind the sand. Often this process took place in the ocean, then plate tectonics (the same force that built the mountains you mentioned) or sea level fluctuations leave the sea bed exposed to become a desert. So yes, many deserts were once part of a seabed, and often marine fossils can be found in outcrops of desert bedrock.

They must have closed out.

I don't really think it has anything to do. I think it remained there as nobody remembered why it was there at first place and everyone is afraid of getting it out !

If you leave an egg in vinegar long enough the shell will disolve leaving only the inner membrane.  It's pretty cool.  I've done it quite a few times.

common belief that a number of ships and airplanes have disappeared under highly unusual circumstances in this region, the United States Coast Guard and others disagree with that assessment, citing statistics demonstrating that the number of incidents involving lost ships and aircraft is no larger than that of any other heavily traveled region of the world. Many of the alleged mysteries have proven not so mysterious or unusual upon close examination, with inaccuracies and misinformation about the cases often circulating and recirculating over the decades.\n\nThe triangle is an arbitrary shape, crudely marking out a corridor of the Atlantic, stretching northward from the West Indies, along the North American seaboard, as far as the Carolinas. In the Age of Sail, ships returning to Europe from parts south would sail north to the Carolinas, then turn east for Europe, taking advantage of the prevailing wind direction across the North Atlantic. Even with the development of steam and internal-combustion engines, a great deal more shipping traffic was (and still is) found nearer the US coastline than towards the empty centre of the Atlantic. The Triangle also loosely conforms with the course of the Gulf Stream as it leaves the West Indies, and has always been an area of volatile weather. The combination of distinctly heavy maritime traffic and tempestuous weather meant that a certain, also distinctly large, number of vessels would founder in storms. Given the historical limitations of communications technology, most of those ships that sank without survivors would disappear without a trace. The advent of wireless communications, radar, and satellite navigation meant that the unexplained disappearances largely ceased at some point in the 20th Century. The occasional vessel still sinks, but rarely without a trace. It should be noted that both the concept and the name of the Bermuda Triangle date only to the 1960s, and were the products of an American journalist.

yes, i have seen several tv shows about it over the years.\n\ni dont believe anything is there.  i think it is a case of myth, rumor, legend gotten way out of hand.  there is probably some a little truth, but mostly exaggeration.  probably pirates did visit there several hundred years ago, maybe they left some valuable objects, but big treasure---doubtful.\n\nthink about it,  why go to such elaborate, unbelievable work to hide something that you plan to recover?  digging a hole 300 feet deep with technology circa 1700? \n\nbasically uninhabited island,  find a good spot, bury it 6 ft down, leave.  who is going to find it before they planned to come back? working 6 months, digging, to create the ultimate hiding place would call more attention to what they were doing.

Well, maybe a little, but if they have it, it is really old and altered.  Below is a link to the geologic map.

Because there are not a lot of them left...

I think it did impact the internet world, but market forces and the advent of free blogs rendered it obsolete.

if you haven't deleted it from your recycle bin they are still there. if you did, they're still there because only the pointer gets deleted.

The possibility is there,though we will never know the truth.It has been lost centuries ago.

No. It is pretty much accepted that it was a combination of environmental change and devastating meteor strikes that wiped them out.

I've lost many special things which in some situations I watched them be lost and in others tried to prevent the lost but still lost. Things that are lost will eventually be found.

its still sinking as of the moment and will keep sinking untill its inhabitants stops sucking out the groud water. too bad, its a beautiful place.

That's probably because it doesn't exist. It is possible that it once did, but was repealed or renumbered.
