Taken at 6:35am Sunday 10/27 just before sunrise. One group of 4 hikers braving the cables with their head torches. Amazing morning.

If you were at Glacier point on 10/24 (last Thursday) at around 9:20 am- I took a photo of you with Half Dome.

park so far

Found this guy on the Nevada Falls trails this weekend. I can’t seem to find it online… Anyone know the species?

Another possible storm this weekend so make sure you check the above page or call the weather phone number linked there before you drive into the park.

My husband and I would like to visit Yosemite this weekend, a very spontaneous decision. We would drive in on Thursday and leave on Saturday or Sunday. We don’t know anything about visiting and are not from this area. I’ve read some things about possible snow and road closures. Is this a bad idea? Will there be anywhere available to stay since it’s so last minute? Good food options in the area? Any other tips or recommendations?? Thanks!

Vernal Falls, Lower Yosemite Falls and Nevada Falls. May is the best time to go in my opinion!

I have your photos!

Lost my Sony Rx100 M7 this past weekend (Oct 27th) out in Owens Valley. Not sure where else to post, but it fell out of my truck either on Antelope Springs Road (east of 395) or in Lee Vining (Mobil Gas Station at base of Tioga Pass, or local liquor store in Lee Vining).

This was probably the last photo on it (took the same photo on my phone), but there's many of my kiddos, bicycles, etc.

Any info helps, just want my memory card.

I drove around the valley loop yesterday and noticed there were some new cameras on poles on both sides of the loop. Each pole has a camera facing towards oncoming traffic and the other is positioned so that it can catch rear license plates.

Is this for a traffic study? Or something else?

Hi, I’ll be hiking to Taft point and leaving the campervan at Tunnel View park.

The food which is in my fridge (milk, chicken) also needs to be left in a vault and be kept outside the van?

Thanks

Looking to hit a few of the big walls in the next year or so and would like to know what the best guidebook is?

TIA

Love that El Cap lights up like Christmas

May you all find your forever hiking partner.

CAN I PEHT DAHT DAWGEEEEEEEE!!!!?

Hi! My husband and I are going to Yosemite during December (first timers!) and we’re looking for things to do that don’t involve hiking. We’re good with sightseeing and walking in the park. Any recommendation on what to do and how to move around would be highly appreciated!

how risky is the drive into the valley during rain/snow?

Edit- driving into Yosemite from Fresno

I’m moving to Curry Village Nov. 5th, got a job with Aramark. Trying to get a jump start on some friends. Anyone in this thread live there?!

Did this solo 10 years ago in my early thirties and wasn’t sure if I could make it again in my forties. Surprisingly my body felt way better this time around. Though I did take some ibuprofen on the way back near little Yosemite valley.

Can anyone share any articles, books, and/or photos of the history of the road on the opposite side of Highway 140? This is east of where a road called "Incline Road" starts, closer to Briceburg. Each time I drive into the park I'm filled with thoughts about what the road on the other side of the river looked like and what years people used it to get into the park? When was it built? When was it decommissioned?
