Mono Lake Sunrise
After enjoying a beautiful afternoon at Lake Tahoe, I spent the night at a rural hotel and arrived in time for an absolutely breathtaking sunrise at the very unique (and stinky) Mono Lake. The colors and reflection were beyond what I'd hoped for! It's a very unique experience walking around the salty shore and tufas -- reminded me a little of the dead sea in Israel, though of course Mono Lake isn't quite that salty.
