Spring in the Mono Basin offers brand new leaves emerging along the creeks and washes of color as wildflowers bloom in the sagebrush. Bright warm sunshine, late-season snowstorms, and gentle spring rainstorms are all possible, combined with a still snow-covered Sierra Nevada as the backdrop. Along with a rising full moon and opportunities to photograph the landscape by moonlight, the photographic possibilities are endless.

Activity level: MODERATE

This seminar’s activity level: moderate. We will be walking up to two miles a day at a leisurely pace, some of which will be over uneven terrain, off trail, and may include stepping up and over obstacles. Participants will need to carry their camera equipment from the cars to field locations and back. We will be standing for several hours at a time while out in the field; some of that time may be in the sun without much shade.
