Mono Lake area better and lot emptier IMO

  Mono lake? It’s pretty arid there. I imagine lower elevations which get cold would provide better foliage, maybe grass valley area?

    The June Lake loop has spectacular aspens.

      Yes that’s true. It’s got some quaint places too.

    In addition to the mentioned June Lake loop, basically all of the valleys west of highway 395 in Mono County have many kinds of foliage, including Lee Vining Creek (the deep valley east of Tioga pass), Mammoth Lakes, Hilton Creek, and many others.

    It's not so much Mono lake per se, but the eastern Sierras in general. Aspens grow on the leeward side.
