Mono Lake Review

Mono Lake is the second largest lake in eastern California. It is one of the oldest lakes in North America. The lake has no exit and is evaporated, so it leaves a large amount of salt deposits in the lake, which is more than twice the salinity of ordinary seawater. Mono Lake lies in a lifeless, grassless desert, 8,000 feet above sea level, surrounded by mountains 2,000 feet above the lake, and the peaks are covered in clouds and mists all year round. This majestic, quiet, sail-shape-the sea-the most desolate inhabitants of the most bleak corner of the earth-not much light was touched by the surrounding scenery. It was a vast ash-covered water, a hundred miles round, two small islands in the center, but only a bulging crust and lava of volcanoes, like snow, a pile of gray pumice and ash, and the zigzag slopes of dead volcanoes, The lake was sealed up and flooded into the huge dead crater.

It is the most beautiful part of a national park here. The moustache is also very beautiful here, and it can be connected to the mountains in the distance. If you walk here, you also like a family to play here. It is very comfortable to walk.

MONO Lake is a salt water lake, located in Yosemite National Park, the lake is azure blue, layer by layer from shallow to deep, feeling that the water is not very deep, the shore will appear by the salt tower scales. There is a wooden plank road by the lake to stroll around the lake, very comfortable.

Mono Lake lies in the mountains, hiking through large mountain bushes to the lake, and sees a large limestone tower (Tufa) standing, which is formed underwater, after hundreds of years of growth to reveal the water and eat the lake shore. Eventually the lake shrinks and the land on the lake expands.

The water in the dry season lake is also very clear. The paradise-like environment makes people easy to relax and linger. You can see it soon from the east side of Yosemite Mountains. There are many parking spots on the roadside.

准确来说，莫诺湖不在优山美地国家公园内，只是距离优胜美地很近，我从佩吉开车过来在这里停一晚，顺路过来发现很不错。其实莫诺湖是一个含盐量比海水高2倍的内陆湖，水中的各种矿物质都沉淀下来，形成各种形状的钙化，泥巴非常臭，看似可以踩上去，但实际很软，朋友一不留神就陷进去了。
