Description
One of a series of images captured at Mono Lake, located in the Mono Lake Tufa State Natural Reserve on the eastern side of California’s Sierra Nevada mountain range. Mono Lake is an amazing place to spend a day exploring its unique and stunning geology. One can walk the gentle trails in and amongst the giant limestone rock formations known as Tufa Towers that grace the shores of the lake down to the water’s edge where the views are spectacular. Mono Lake acts as a resting and eating stop for numerous migratory shorebirds. While the water has a very high saline content, one can swim in the lake and enjoy a greater buoyancy than in a normal, fresh-water lake. On a calm day with little or not wind the surface of the lake will flatten out and the reflections of the mountains, the sky and clouds, and of course the tufa make the scene even more magical.
