Serene Alpine Lake

One of the best things about backcountry backpacking is coming across a cool alpine lake. When you're hot and sweaty from the hike, there's nothing more refreshing than jumping unto a natural like like this.

Upper Cathedral Lake, Yosemite National Park


You can reach this lake via the Cathedral Peak trail in Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite National Park. It's a day hike if you start early but it's better if you overnight it and camp near this lake.

It's a busy trail so there's a daily quota. You will need a backcountry permit if you want to spend more than a day here.
