Mono Lake

I love Mono Lake. It's one of the most unusual places to visit in California. It has two islands (Negit and Paoha) that are important stops for migrating birds. We visited Panum Crater from which we had a great view of the lake and the Mono Craters (the youngest mountain range in North America). Oh, and did I mention that you also get the spectacular eastern flank of the Sierra Nevada to the west.

Special thanks to David Gaines (1947-1988) for all his efforts to preserve and restore the lake. We need more people like him to fight for the environment.
