English: Mono Lake as seen from the "South Tufa" area. In the foreground (on right) is one of numerous tufa towers that are in and around the lake. Tufa can only be formed under water, but it has been exposed above water in recent decades, after Los Angeles started diverting water from the creeks that fed into the lake; see California Water Wars for details. The white formation that dominates the middle of the photo is Paoha Island, with Negit Island (smaller, black island) behind it. The low black hill on the other shore (behind Negit Island) is Black Point. On Mapcarta's satellite map, the South Tufa area itself is not marked, but it is located directly below the Paoha Island marker, to the left of the Navy Beach marker. If you zoom in, you can see the parking lot. Note that the road that connects the 120 to the South Tufa parking lot is not paved.
