Lily lake is a really more of a lily pond.. not very swimable, but shallow yet has an incredible number of lily pads on this lake for a sierra lake! This year it was basically boggy. We got eaten live hiking out to the north up to the road.
Here is a ride with GPS Link to this route
this route hasn’t been optimized yet so there may be a much better way to get to lily lake and also to make it a round trip hike.
Here is a second route and included a nice road for part of it
