     This lake is so wonderful. A great spot to stop at in the neighborhood of Blue Lake is Dore Pass, and Saddlebag Campground is a pleasant campground nearby. You need to explore Dore Cliff while you're here at Blue Lake. After a long day outdoors Heidelberg Inn is a glorious place to spend a night or two, and whitewater paddling is pleasant on Tenaya Creek.
This lake is so wonderful. Have a fine hiking adventure along the John Muir Trail - section 2; Blue

Blue Lake is a location that is reasonably dried up typically; of all the months in a year January is the one with the most snow while October is mostly the driest month. This lake is one of the great places here in the Central Sierra Nevada. Lakes are such serene places, why not stop at Oneida Lake near Blue Lake, and at Blue Lake you can observe Gilcrest Peak.
For the duration of the summer, highs ordinarily are in the 80's at Blue Lake with nighttime lows in the 30's. The cold days of the wintertime come with highs in the 40's while Blue Lake night low temperatures during the winter are in the 0's. Whohoo, so many entertaining things in one place! The Central Sierra Nevada is excellent! Yosemite Gateway Motel is a great place to get some rest, and some of the water nearby flows, like South Fork Mill Creek.
