		<description><![CDATA[If you haven&#8217;t experienced poconip, or ice fog, at Mono Lake, I recommend it. It usually happens when it&#8217;s sunny in most other parts of the Eastern Sierra, and the ground is frozen or snow-covered. The fog can be quite thick, and it is very chilly inside the fog layer&#8212;keeping temperatures below freezing all day. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are sad to relay the news that longtime supporter and friend to Mono Lake, Huell Howser has passed away. Huell introduced countless people to Mono Lake through his first visit with &#8220;California&#8217;s Gold&#8221; in 1992 and then again in 2008 when he returned to film another episode, &#8220;Mono Lake Today,&#8221; about the exciting restoration [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We missed winter last year. There was little snow in the Mono Basin during the 2011/2012 season, and sometimes you forgot that it was winter. Hikers freely roamed the high country in December 2011, and Tioga Pass remained open well into January 2012. One year later: a week&#8217;s worth of winter storms have nearly erased our [...]]]></description>
