Whether you are an armchair enthusiast or a nature explorer, The Secret Life of Mono Lake provides insight into an enigmatic lake. By blending elements of natural and cultural history, a portrait emerges to reveal the importance of the lake as an international bird flyway and a critical flora-and-fauna habitat. It also explains why the lake lost half its water volume and examines how the power of a local grassroots environmental organization saved this remarkable lake. Interactive center bars engage readers by asking questions and featuring food for thought, depicting responsible stewardship, and providing hiking essentials. Acting as a recreation resource guide as well, this book presents hiking trails and current camping connections along with the best time to visit, driving directions, and contact information.
