"I met my friends at the Gardisky Lake Trailhead for our 1st hike of 5 days out here in Yosemite. THis was our only hike outside the park but its a favorite of ours so we met here. Gorgeous hike up to Gardisky and then the butt kicking starts going up the western slope of Tioga. The elevation hits when you just drove up from sea level. THe views are so sweet from this rarely visited summit. A great way to start the trip and #45 of my 100 peaks in 2014 goal. We swam naked in Gardisky lake on the way down." - 1-with-Nature, Jul 11, 2014
"We were camping for a week on Lake Ellery and did a day hike up to Gardiski Lake a very remote lake up around 11,000 ft. From there we went up the south west to west face of Tioga. there was a little bit of snow navigating around the lake to get to that point first. Mostly a small rock scramble all the way up and the views from the top were among the best my eyes had ever been treated to. we slide down the snow on our backs for a quick easy way down haha." - 1-with-Nature, Jun 27, 2010
