Canoe on Mono Lake!

This post was written by Russ Taylor, 2011 Canoe Coordinator.

Paddling through the stillness of the waters on a Mono Lake guided canoe tour is one of the best ways to experience all that the lake has to offer. You’ll learn some local and natural history from a knowledgeable guide, examine the brine shrimp and alkali flies up close, all while moving among the mysterious formations known as tufa towers.

Canoeing Mono Lake is a great way to spend the morning with family and friends and to learn more about the important environmental issues surrounding the lake and inspiring story of ongoing efforts to protect it.  No previous canoeing experience is necessary.
