This area is mostly known for Mono Lake, which delivered a considerable amount of water for Los Angeles starting in 1941, and as a result the water level dropped over 40 vertical feet. The result is water that is known for its high salinity, and is surrounded by tufas - limestone towers originally formed by underwater springs. During summer, the border of the lake is also surrounded by billions of brine flies hovering just over the water surface.
