About This Trail

In lieu of the TuolumneMeadows route in the park, there is a different route. This route is an option for hikers. The winter closure of the park does not allow overnight parking or restrict access. This hike requires over 5,000 ft. of vertical gain before reaching the base. Affirmative: It is not a good idea to attempt this in one day.
