Essence of the Great Basin information sign Mono Lake Eastern California USA 20110925-131727 C4A
Essence of the Great Basin sign located above California State Route 395 and a view of Mono Lake and the Western most edge of the Great Basin. The Great Basin covers 10,000 Square miles (26,000 square kilometers) one edge being the Mono Lake area and covering states of California, Nevada, Utah, and parts of Oregon and NW tip of Arizona. The information about areas referred to in this and other signs are in the Mono Lake slides preceding and following this one. The next three slides show each of the three topics on this information sign - so you don't have to try to read them here.
Notice all the stickers on the guard rail at the top of the photo. There were two such guard rails in this turnout, both covered with bumper stickers covering various points of view.
