Town of Mammoth Lakes from atop Mammoth Mountain, California
Photograph by S.R. Brantley on August 2, 1998

This view of the Town of Mammoth Lakes and the southern half of Long Valley caldera is from Mammoth Mountain looking toward the east. The low area between the resurgent dome and the steep walls of the southern caldera rim (middle right) is the south moat. Lake Crowley is visible in upper left, and the White Mountains dominate the skyline in the far distance.
