Mono Lake – Day Trip (Year Round)

The Petrified Tufa Formations at Mono Lake make you feel like you’ve just landed on the moon that has a lake on it!  Mono Lake has an interesting history and even played a part during the Cold War as a training / testing facility.  Mono lake has 3 times the salt as the ocean!  It is definitely worth a day / Picnic trip or a Sunset / Snack trip.  (I’m always up for a good snackie whenever Mom and I go on day outings)!  Mono Lake draws amateur and professional photographers from around the world.  Our cabin-neighbors during our Rock Creek Summer vaca said they went for the Sunset and it was amazing.  Apparently it can get a little crowded in the Summer for Sunset pics so, go early and claim your spot!  Mom found a couple of “photography tips” online that you may want to check out.  The photos here are amazing too!  Winter and off-season seem pretty relaxed.  There were a few people in October but no big crowds.  Mom says when we go back this Spring we are definitely doing a Sunset photo session.  Hope you enjoy the pics Mom did take in the meantime!

We’ll be back Mono Lake!!!
