About: Arya oversees the Committee's communications program, which includes the Mono Lake Newsletter. She loves her job because she gets to share the inspiring work of the Mono Lake Committee with members and visitors alike. When she's not in the office you might find her running with her dogs Dublin and Poco, volunteering with the Lee Vining Fire Department, listening to any music with a banjo in it, or willing the plants in her garden to grow. Her favorite things to do in the Mono Basin include ice skating on nearby lakes, skiing the Mono Craters, and getting to smell the sagebrush when it rains.See All Posts by Arya (91)

Yesterday I woke up to a Say’s Phoebe’s windy call outside my window. Today I went for a little cross-country ski at lunch. What does that mean? It’s time for the Winter & Spring 2011 Mono Lake Newsletter to sprout.
As snowflakes fell this winter the Mono Lake Committee staff wrote up a storm of their own. You’ll find great articles on GFAJ-1 (the infamous arsenic-eating bacteria), the unusual winter flows on Rush Creek, a status report on the California Gull colony, a fresh look at Mill Creek’s water, the Mono Lake Committee’s mission to balance the water needs of people and the environment with a 21st Century aqueduct, and lots more little gems from all of your favorite staff writers. Plus, the Field Seminars are in there … sign up soon to get your spot.
If you’re a Mono Lake Committee member you can log in to see the Newsletter online now. Enjoy!
