We were so sad to leave Dog Lake and its tranquil surroundings. My friend had never been around Tolumne Meadows (or on Tioga Road) for that matter, so we drove slowly around, checking out different highlights. As we were driving, we came across this beautiful lake, right along the side of the road. We decided to pull over and check it out. It was warm and the breeze felt wonderful as we soaked our feet in Tenaya Lake. There are multiple pull-outs on both sides of the road for Tenaya Lake. We even saw people swimming and picnicking, so yes, give it a go!
Happy travels!
