CONVICT LAKE
Located at the foot of Mount Morrison, Convict Lake is known for the beautiful reflection of the mountains in its turquoise waters.
Located at the foot of Mount Morrison just before Mammoth Lakes, Convict Lake is a beautiful sight. It is known for the reflection of the mountains in its turquoise water and its famous trout, but also for its unusual history. The lake known to the Indians as Wit-sa-nap was renamed "convict" by settlers after an incident on September 23, 1871, when a group of escaped convicts fled to the lake and were shot at. You can walk or ride around the lake.
