New Mono Lake web cam installed at Visitor Center
November 10th, 2011 by Carolyn, Former Project SpecialistA new camera has been installed at the Mono Basin National Forest Scenic Area Visitor Center for the Mono Lake Cam, one of the Mono Lake Committee’s three Mono Basin web cams.

The new camera comes with perks; one of which is the elimination of the light streak that was present on the old web cam. It also has a wider angle and is able to show the Visitor Center outdoor patio, roof, and trees on the side to create an overall better image.
The Mono Lake Cam is available for anyone to view on our website thanks to a partnership with the Forest Service Visitor Center. They have been hosting this camera since the late 1990s; a big thank you goes out to them for helping to provide an online view of Mono Lake available to all!
So take a moment and check out the new and improved web view of Mono Lake on our website. We hope you enjoy the view.

Great new addition … I live vicariously through the web cams of the Sierras. I’ve made reservations for June 2012 to return for the first time in 6 six years! I’m so looking forward to getting back “home.”

Very nice addition. When I need to get away and I am stuck in town, I take a vacation via webcams and plan for future trips.

Beautiful! Makes me miss Mono Lake that much more! We’re looking forward to returning in the spring!
