View is from along Highway 395 toward the east. Two lava domes of the Mono Craters are visible in this photo. The orginal blocky surfaces of the domes are hidden beneath layers of whitish tephra. The highest dome (center of photo) towers nearly 600 m above the foreground. The dome to the right is younger than the other dome.
