Near Slab City, California, a man painted a hill. It was outsider art: Leonard Knight had no training and no great masters to imitate. But somehow, he created something that resonates with the world. This is the story of Salvation Mountain.
Thanks to Ron and to all the team at the mountain; you can find out more about them here: http://salvationmountain.org/
