As drought hammers Mono Lake, thirsty Los Angeles must look elsewhere for water

On April 1, Mono Lake's level measured just under 6,380 feet above sea level—about 1 inch below a threshold set in the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power's licenses for diverting alpine runoff from streams that feed the lake east of Yosemite National Park.

Been there and it's a unique lake, took these photos:

Hope for the best. We had some good Mono memories regardless.. :

Saw Cinderella’s, “don’t know what you got” video and immediately noticed Mono. Wasn’t much to do there but did catch  a missing lug nut from my vehicle while there.
