My Vacation Pics


Recommended Posts

Some of you may know that I went on vacation last week. I thought that I would share some pics. :)

We stayed in Mammoth, in the mountains as you will be able to see, in a cabin.

Here is a view of the mountains from our lake.

A friendly wild Black Bear walks around the cabins.

This is Obsidian Dome, it is all solid glass from a volcano. Lots of Pumas is there too.

There used to be a lot of mining for gold here, and thsi is a old flywheel used to crush ore.

We visited a fish hatchery, where they raise fish.

One of the biggest mining towns was Bodie, here is a old car from there.

More of Bodie, that is a Stamp Mill where the crushed ore was processed with Arsenic to make the gold settle and collect it.

Mono Lake is well known for the Tufas, which stick out of the lake.

Another view from the top of Devil's Postpile. The blocks in the other pictures were once attached up at the top, but have fallen down.

A really neat cave that I found in a mountain while we hiked. It was flowing with really cold snow water, and I walked in about 20 feet on the rails on the ground.
