Mount

A glacial lake at about 8,150 feet on the Tioga Road through Yosemite, between Tuolumne Meadows and Olmsted Point. The Tenaya Glacier carved this basin out of the granite and pulled back, leaving the dome-and-bowl shape and the cold water it holds today. The road is open only from late spring to mid-autumn most years; in summer the lake's east end is one of Yosemite's quieter swimming beaches, with Polly Dome rising directly above it. The Ahwahneechee chief Tenaya, for whom the lake was renamed, had called it Py-we-ack, the lake of the shining rocks.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
