The tranquil isolation of Mono Lake in California - just outside the eastern entrance to Yosemite National Park at Lee Vining - makes it almost a place of pilgrimage for me. It's a lake filled with mountain snow run-off from the Sierras, and it has no outlet. The mineral wash from the mountains and the volcanic springs that enter from the lake bed get concentrated through evaporation and as a consequence the water is highly alkaline.
