Mono Lake, is situated in the USA and it really can be named the oldest lake in North America. However, it used to lose its water only by evaporation, so it has a strong resemblance to the Dead Sea in Israel. Mono Lake (rhymes with “OH no”) is located completely within the state of California.
The lake is famous because of its importance to the state and its incredible dramatic tufa towers. This lake is very salty and according to numerous reviews it is beautiful when viewed from any direction and all tourists will find something interesting and unusual here.
To be precise and to make it clear for you – the Mono Lake visitor center is located just off US 395 north of Lee Vining.
