High Country Beauty

Yosemite National Park's Tioga Road, winding through high mountain passes, is a treasure trove for photographers seeking serene and reflective landscapes. Along this picturesque route, you'll discover a series of pristine alpine lakes that beg to be captured through the lens.

Tenaya Lake, with its crystal-clear waters reflecting the surrounding granite peaks, is a favorite spot for photographers and nature lovers alike. Its accessibility, nestled right along Tioga Road, makes it a prime location for capturing the park's stunning vistas. Tioga Lake, nestled amidst the rugged terrain, offers a more secluded setting. Its still waters mirror the grandeur of the surrounding landscape, creating an atmosphere of tranquility.
