With elevations above 8,000 fee, he Tioga Pass in Yosemite National Park is usually covered with 10 to 15 feet of snow by now, but not this year.

Near the top of the pass is frozen Tenaya Lake and for the first time in more than 70 years, the ice is snow-free and exposed. Ice skaters, hockey players and even dogs have made the trek up the pass to enjoy this rare moment.
