    Hiking

    The small, seasonal lake on Tenaya Creek lies between North and Half Dome and is the last remnant of a large glacial lake that filled most of the Yosemite Valley at the end of the last ice age, but now mostly only has water in spring.

    A nice hike to start in Yosemite National Park.

    Small seasonal lake situated in Tenaya Canyon. In summer, the lake is empty and it is pleasant to walk across the bottom of the lake. When there is water, it is possible to admire the reflections of the sorrounding landscape.
