Death Valley
In terms of altitude, the lowest elevation in the Western Hemisphere is in Death Valley. The elevation in the lowest point is 86 meters below sea level. If we include places under water, the lowest place is the bottom of Lake Champlain, between Vermont and New York. Because it's elevation above see level is just 95 feet, and the deepest part of this lake is 399 feet, this makes that point lower than even Death Valley, which is 282 feet below sea level. I stumbled upon this fact in Bill McKibben's book, Wandering Home.
Holme Fen in Cambridgeshire is considered to be the lowest point at 9 feet below sea level
The answer is Jericho which is more than 1000 feet below sea level.
yes, the Dead sea is the saltiest and deepest in elevation for a sea

= The lowest point in the western hemisphere is NOT in California. The lowest point in the western hemisphere is Laguna del Carbón in Argentina. It is -105 meters below sea level. = = The lowest point in California is in Death Valley, -86 meters below sea level. =
The lowest point in the Western Hemisphere is Laguna del Carbon, Argentina, (105 meters/340 ft below sea level); this is also the lowest point in the Southern Hemisphere and the seventh lowest point on Earth.Badwater Basin in Death Valley, California is the lowest point in the Northern Hemisphere and the second lowest point in the Western Hemisphere (eighth lowest on Earth), at 86 meters/282 feet below sea level.
