Meet the abandoned “Action Park of the West”

by Phil Stilton

There’s an abandoned waterpark near Barstow, California that was once called the Action Park of the west. Action Park was an injury-plagued waterpark in New Jersey that shut down but has recently reopened. It wasn’t the only dangerous waterpark for thrill-seekers. Another similar park existed in the middle of the Mojave desert near Delores Lake. The owners created a lake, called Lake Delores, which now sits abandoned and dry.
