Yosemite Daily Photo, swimmers eye view from Tenaya Lake, 7/22/10

If you are looking for a great escape from the heat head on up To Tenaya Lake on Hwy 120 east the Tioga Pass Road. Located about 8 mile west of Tuolumne Meadows this beautiful Alpine Lake is surrounded by domes and mountains. The east end has a white sand beach and the water is surprisingly warm. You can swim for quite a long time and the kids will love playing in the sand.

This photo was taken with HDHero water proof camera while swimming out in the lake and you are looking at Tenaya Peak that rises several thousand feet above the lake
