Constantly feel called to the mountains. Stokes about all things rock climbing. Learning to live with more love, joy and faith. Currently exploring the great land of Australia

Echoing all that has been said, this is one of the highlight hikes of Yosemite. The views from the summit is truly something...even life changing based on my own experiences. If you are able to do this hike in the Spring (March-April), you will catch the snow peaks in the Sierra Nevada. However, at times the trail can still be covered in snow, so follow the yellow signs marked in trees! Also, the river water tend to be higher in the Spring, so forking the river might be necessary. Take your shoes off and use the stepping stones!
