One of the June Lake Loop's standout hiking trails, Yost Lake sits at 8,960 and is a small, glacier-formed lake that sits at the bottom of an impressive slide. The 3.8-mile (each way) trek to Yost Lake along Yost Creek climbs steadily up a wildflower-sprinkled High Sierra ridge. Expect to be hiking in both shade and sun, with demanding inclines and great scenery.
