Mono Lake

Of course, one place worth visiting is Mono Lake

It's surrounded by a whole lot of desert

Panum Crater pops right out of the lake bed and has some pretty amazing views
a little volcanic zit
Pretty though

Mono Lake really is a picture perfect place

Tufas

Lots of pictures of tufas. Bare with me, I couldn't decide which to post

Alkalai flies

more tufa

Another hot spring, though not one you can get into

It wasn't actually boiling, but it sure looked like it with the air bubbling through

More tufas, a different kind

And the view driving away
