Description
Beautiful Yosemite Trail. Small streams to be crossed, may be difficult to cross in spring with the snow runoff. Wooded trail with plenty of great scenery. About 4 miles into the hike it opens up and you get great views of Half Dome and Clouds Rest. Upon reaching North Dome you get a great scene including Yosemite Valley, Half Dome and Clouds rest.
