DERMAGA kapal pesiar yang terbuat dari kayu kini dikelilingi oleh retakan lumpur ketika Califonia, AS yang dilanda musim kemarau berkepanjangan.
Foto-foto mengejutkan menunjukkan waduk Folsom Lake, dekat Sacramento, kini tak lagi menyerupai dermaga kapal pesiar.
Rumput hijau kini tumbuh di dasar marina sementara batuan kering dapat bertumpuk di tepi bekas waduk.
Foto-foto tersebut muncul karena beberapa petani dan perusahaan penyedia air mengatakan mereka dapat melanjutkan memompa dari tiga saluran air tapi kini sumber air pun mengering, seperti dilansir MailOnline.
A WOODEN pontoon has been left surrounded by cracked mud as California's record-breaking drought continues.
Shocking images show Folsom Lake reservoir, near Sacramento, standing at only 18 percent capacity.
Green grass covers what used to be the marina base while dry rocks can be seen on the former reservoir banks.
The pictures emerged as some farmers and water agencies were told they could resume pumping from three waterways.
