2021 Map of Tenaya Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Tenaya Lake and the high peaks of the Cathedral Range dominate this high-elevation wilderness within Yosemite National Park. The landscape is defined by massive granite features including Polly Dome, Pywiack Dome, and the prominent Clouds Rest. Transport and passage are marked by historic corridors such as the Old Tioga Road Trl and the world-renowned John Muir Trl, which traverses the eastern half of the map through Cathedral Pass. Numerous alpine water bodies, including the Cathedral Lakes and May Lake, are distributed among the peaks, feeding into systems like Tenaya Creek and the dramatic Tenaya Canyon. This survey illustrates the intricate drainage patterns of the Sierra Nevada before these waters descend toward the valley floor, showing the relation between glacial basins like Long Meadow and the surrounding granite summits.
