  • High in the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada mountains near North Lake in Inyo County California is a hiking trail that leads to Grass Lake (pictured) and then on a steep climb up to Lower and Upper Lamarck Lakes above the tree line. It is a good hike that leads to amazing views and an area that is very peaceful and beautiful. Grass Lake is very tranquil and the pure water creates allows for good reflections of nearby mountain peaks. The lake is fed by water from Lower Lamarck Lake that makes a rapid decent into the valley. Mount Lamarch is in the distance and rises to an altitude of 13,356 feet.

  • Alabama Hills are a rocky formation on the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada mountains in the Owens Valley of California, near Lone Pine, California. Though geographically considered a range of hills, geologically they are a part of the Sierra Nevada mountains. The Alabama Hills are a popular location for television and movie productions (especially Westerns) set in an archetypical "rugged" environment. Since the early 1920s, 150 movies and about a dozen television shows have been filmed here.

  • Mono Lake is a large saline and akaline lake in California on the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. It is 1,944 m (6,380 ft) above sea level. The lake is in an geologically active area at the north end of the Mono-Inyo Craters volcanic chain. Geological activity is caused by faulting at the base of the Sierra Nevada, and is associated with the crustal stretching of the Basin and Range Province. The most recent eruption occurred 350 years ago at Paoha Island in Mono Lake.

  • Mount Shasta in Northern California at 14,179 feet (4,322 m) is the second highest peak in the Cascades and the fifth highest in California. Mount Shasta has an estimated volume of 85 cubic miles (350 km3) which makes it the most voluminous stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc. Theodore Roosevelt said of the mountain, "When I first caught sight of it over the braided folds of the Sacramento Valley, I was fifty miles away and afoot, alone and weary. Yet all my blood turned to wine, and I have not been weary since."
