During my visit, the otherworldly landscape and unique geological formations, particularly the striking tufa towers, left an indelible impression. The Reserve's serene atmosphere and the vastness of Mono Lake create a sense of tranquility, …
Talk about interesting. Almost seems out of this world. Park and pay then enjoy the paved walked down to the lake's shore.
The lake here feels mysterious somehow.
Maybe it's because Mono Lake is an alkaline salt lake.
