Crustacea is a guess, really. They look like tiny fairy shrimp, Anostraca? These were found in the small upper lake, next to a larger lake (both nameless) north of Mt. Hoffman in Yosemite.

I'm including a picture of the area from near that gap, to give a sense of the area. Here is a video that shows their movement:
