That sits within the Gran Bajo de San Juli\u00e1n, in Argentina at -105 metres (-345 feet). Numerous reputable sources including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cia.gov\/the-world-factbook\/countries\/argentina\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CIA World Factbook<\/a> repeat this elevation so it seems accurate. As stated in <a href=\"https:\/\/geology.com\/below-sea-level\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Geology.com<\/a> for example,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;San Julian&#8217;s Great Depression is located in southeastern Argentina. It is the lowest land location in both the Western and Southern Hemispheres. The deepest part is Laguna del Carb\u00f3n, at approximately 105 meters below sea level.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Laguna del Carb\u00f3n easily outpaced California&#8217;s Death Valley which registered at -86 metres (-282 feet). It qualifies the Argentinian site as the lowest of the Americas. Yet, few people know about it and fewer people ever visit it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m14!1m8!1m3!1d270755.97541071475!2d-68.346405!3d-49.581897!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0xbdc6dd1d24ecd8a9%3A0x6e58a6f7d37e76ad!2sLaguna%20del%20Carb%C3%B3n!5e1!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1611146705526!5m2!1sen!2sus\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" aria-hidden=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There didn&#8217;t appear to be much of anything at the lowpoint. Only an intermittent salt lake at the bottom of a large endorheic basin, in Argentina&#8217;s arid Patagonia appeared. It was so obscure that I could not find a single image to embed and share within this page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gran Bajo de San Juli\u00e1n<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Argentina&#8217;s Province of Santa Cruz is its southernmost mainland province (only Tierra del Fuego sits farther south) and cuts across the width of the nation. The province&#8217;s official website included a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.santacruz.gob.ar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Relief &amp; Hydrography<\/a> page, which described its general layout. It also included a nice elevation comparison map:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;The territory has two well-defined zones: the Andean one, to the west, and the plateaus in the centre and the east. The Chico River is born in the plateau called &#8216;the Plateau of death&#8217;, it flanks the central plateau from the south, branching out in various arms, and flows into an estuary in which the Santa Cruz River also flows.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Plateau of death.

It remains private property. Thus, visitors cannot enter without permission. Nonetheless a few hearty explorers made the trek and shared their stories on the Intertubes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.saexplorers.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">South American Explorers<\/a> posted all back issues of its magazine on its website including <a href=\"http:\/\/www.saexplorers.org\/content\/sa-explorer-issue-38\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Issue 38<\/a> (September 1994). It contained the article &#8220;Exploring the Gran Bajo de San Julian&#8221;. In this article, the author noted that the designation of Laguna del Carb\u00f3n as the lowest point of elevation in the Americas had been fairly recent. Unfortunately I couldn&#8217;t find the year that official measurement happened. However it would have been well into the second half of the Twentieth Century more than likely. Maybe that&#8217;s was why the site remains closed to general tourism. Nobody thought it was special until recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A site called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.caroline-and-stephen.com\/7-lows\/south-america\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">7 Lows<\/a>, dedicated to the noble pursuit of visiting the lowpoints on each of the seven continents, featured Laguna del Carb\u00f3n even more recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;There is no major logistical problem getting to the general region where Laguna del Carb\u00f3n is. The nearest major airport is located at R\u00edo Gallegos which is about a 3 to 4 hour drive away. There are several commercial flights each day including flights from Buenos Aires. Laguna del Carb\u00f3n is located on private land and the biggest logistical problem is obtaining permission to visit.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The trip report and photos included on that site are well worth checking out. Certainly people will travel out of their way to visit the spot. Maybe the economics will allow easier access and perhaps even a small tourism industry to blossom nearby someday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve written about elevation lowpoints previously including Lake Assal (Africa), Lake Eyre (Australia) and Death Valley (North America).
