Tufas at the south end of Mono Lake. These tufas were once under the lake - an important part of the lake's habitat for living organisms. All that changed when the city of Los Angeles started to divert the streams to the lake in 1941. A program is now in place to restore the lake's water level over the next 20 years. After restortation, the level will still be 25 feet lower than the prediversion level. Visit monolake.org for information and facts about this amazing lake.
