Another day trip! On our way to Ancient Bristlecone Forest.
This area is known as Fossil Falls. It is full of lava rock just like you would see in a bbq or your flower bed. In the picture, the power lines are at least 60 feet tall. That would make this shear cliff at least 100 feet tall of ancient lava.
This picture is from the northern edge of Owen’s lake. This past winter when California had extensive rain storms flooding the state, they had the opportunity to allow the lake to fill up a couple of inches. This would have allowed them to control the dust on the ancient lake bed naturally. Instead, they sucked every bit of water they could out of the lake. This forces them to use sprinklers now to control the dust, which run off electricity.
