And you can see the bottom. did you use a polarizer or is the water that clear this time of year? We did not stop for a look this time. Actually, Mono Lake is teaming with life. It is not a desert by any means. Alkali flies and brine shrimp abound. And recently some NASA scientists found that there is possibly a novel form of life that can use arsenic as a replacement for phosphorous in many biochemical pathways, including perhaps DNA and RNA. Kind of "earth shattering" in the field if it pans out as the early evidence seems to suggest. It is a very interesting lake. did you wander over to the south end to see the tufa formations? The lake is slowly refilling after being tapped heavily for water in the 70's and 80's. The formations are being partially covered.
