Convict Lake
$22.00
A glacial lake in the eastern Sierra, three miles off Highway 395, with Mount Morrison rising about 4,400 feet straight out of the south shore. The name comes from a September day in 1871, when a posse caught up with escaped Carson City prisoners at the foot of the peak. A Wells Fargo agent named Robert Morrison was killed in the fight, and the mountain carries his name. In the morning, before the wind comes up, the water sits flat and the mountain goes twice.
