Located in Mono Lake's
Old School House, this museum displays both the commonplace
and delightfully odd artifacts,
photographs, books, maps and equipment chronicling the cultural history
of the Mono Basin.
Outside exhibits feature farming and mining equipment. See Native
American artifacts, gold mining implements and even a legendary
upside-down house!
Inside the one will find the wheel of the Venita,
the old Mono Lake Tour Boat, that
felt the hands of Wallis McPherson as he
guided her.
