Mono Lake Tufas & Negit Island

            Mono Lake Tufa State Reserve,
Mono Co., California

Tufas are strange shapes that were formed underwater in this saline lake before the lake's water level dropped in the 1900's due to water diversion from streams that normally feed the lake. Water was diverted for Los Angeles drinking water. While diversions have decreased due to court orders, the lake'w water level has not risen to levels mandated by court order, mostly due to drought.
Negit Island, the black shape in distance, "was formed by a series of eruptions that began about 1600 years ago, when the glacially-fed lake was many times larger. The Negit site was the source of the most recent volcanic eruption in the Mono Basin, about 270 years ago."--Ron Wolf
