Saddlebag Lake and Mt. Dana


Sierra Nevada, California, USA, just north of Tioga Pass, the back way (i.e., from the east over the Sierra crest) into Yosemite. Looking south from the water taxi on the way back from the 20 Lakes Basin. Saddlebag Lake is another of SoCal Edison's reservoirs from the early 20th century. The main Sierra Crest runs up along the ridge to the summit of Mt. Dana (13057 ft/3980 m) and marks the boundary of Yosemite National Park (to the right/west). The small settlement ahead is Saddlebag Lake Resort. That's where the taxi docks. There's also a popular campground there.
Mt. Dana is named for James Dwight Dana, a pioneering American geologist and mineralogist. "Dana's Manual of Mineralogy" is published to this day, in an umpteenth edition. Quite a few of the peaks in this part of the Sierra Nevada are named for famous geologists or naturalists.
