Description
Mono Lake is located at the eastern edge of the Sierra Mountains in California, along Highway 395.
It is an ancient lake as well as being saline. There are the tufa towers, which attract many photographers, with their interesting shapes and arrangements.
Thousands of birds call this lake home. The lake is filled with brine shrimp which is good eating for the birds.
Driving along the highway one has many views of this large lake. It is surrounded by gently rolling hills. It is a peaceful site.
I painted the lake from a photo I took while passing close to the lake.
