They were both taken in the high country (at approx. 10,000 feet elevation) of the Sierra Nevada on backpacking trips. The first picture is "Peter Pande Lake". For me, Peter Pande Lake and the surrounding area is the most beautiful place on the planet. I've been going there since I was a teenager and have never seen another person there, mostly because it's tough to get to. It's a seven hour drive from LA and then a ten mile hike over the Silver Divide (seen in the background) with lots of cross country and serious rock hopping/scrambling. Here's a couple more pics from the area:
Peter Pande
View from above, Camp is at the far end of the lake.
Anne Lake nearby
A pond next to the lake:
20 minutes of fishing:
A swim:
The second picture from the earlier post is "Big Margaret Lake" which is only about five miles as the crow flies from Peter Pande but is accessible from a different trail head. Also a tough hike. Here's some pics of Big Margaret and the surrounding area:
