Title: Mono Lake Intern
About: As a native of the diminutive Green Mountains, Julia is completely in awe of the Sierra but has to admit she sometimes misses real maple syrup. After her 2010 summer internship she stayed through the winter as a Project Specialist, and is now a Mono Lake Intern for her second summer. In her free time, Julia loves to hike, cook, write, and uproot invasive weeds.See All Posts by Julia (42)

The National Park Service is extending the “Stars Over Mono” program through September 19 this year, so you still have a chance to learn about the night sky with the help of an interpretive ranger.

The program meets every Monday at 8:00pm at the South Tufa kiosk. Mono Lake is a particularly good stargazing venue as the horizon is not obscured and there is very little light pollution. Bring a pad to sit on and your sense of wonder! Each program lasts an hour and a half.
