This is one of the latest years for snow I've seen up here at the summit. I am definitely ready for the snow to go. Here is one from this morning.



It will be awhile before the water levels rise enough in Mono Lake to cover the tufas. The level is supposed to go up a couple of inches a year and the tallest tufas are 20+ feet. Photographically, it will be a sad day when the tufa are submerged. Here is a pic from last year's kayak trip.
