Tulainyo Lake and Mt Russell - Sierra
Looking NW from below the saddle NE of Mt Carrilon over Tulainyo Lake to Mt Russell at left, and Russell Carilon Col to it's left. This lake is sometimes referred to as the highest elevation lake (12822') in the continental U.S., but this may be subjective given the distinction between lakes, ponds, and tarns is not clearly defined. California, Sierra Nevada Mountains, Sequoia National Park, Tulainyo Lake. Off the John Muir Trail near Mile 210.
