Tenaya Lake is a great spot in Yosemite, but it seems a shame to only stop on the side of the highway. Take some time and hike into the backcountry. Cathedral Lakes and Sunrise Lakes are two destinations near to the trailhead at Tenaya Lake and they are definitely worth visiting.

Great way to experience Yosemite. Check out the view at Glacier Point before you do Half Dome, it's really cool to see where you're headed before you go there. Recommend making this an extended backcountry trip to get away from the crowds. Hike Half Dome as early as you possibly can.

Austin's totally right, climbing the last few miles on the west side of Cloud's Rest with a multi-day backpack are gruelling. No other word for it. But once I reached the top, my body forgot every single ache. It was that majestic. Made it there at midday, would recommend catching a night on the ridge to the east or west and being at Cloud's Rest for sunrise and/or sunset.
