Mono Lake has existed for almost 760,000 years, but it nearly vanished during the early 20th century thanks to the city of Los Angeles.

When the Los Angeles Aqueduct opened in 1913, it was hailed as a modern marvel and became part of LADWP Superintendent William Mulholland’s legacy. The aqueduct allowed Los Angeles to grow into the major city it is today and sustain its massive population. Unfortunately, the project nearly destroyed Mono Lake which plays a critical role in the local ecosystem. Had it not been for the valiant efforts of people like David Gaines and the Mono Lake Committee, Mono Lake would have disappeared for good and become a dry lake like Owens Lake.

I was super excited to travel to Mono Lake to produce this video and share with you what I learned. I hope you enjoy it! Please like this video, subscribe to this channel and leave a comment down below letting me know where I should go next!
