Just 13 miles away from Tioga Pass entrance of Yosemite, Mono Lake is one of the oldest lakes in the western hemisphere. Mono Lake is hauntingly beautiful, reflecting the snow-capped Sierra Nevada in its shimmering blue waters. An immense inland sea, the 70 square-mile lake fills a natural basin, 700 square-miles in size. Together with nearby volcanoes, ghost towns and trout-filled streams, this area is a natural wonderland for the entire family. Click here for more details.
