Thanks for sharing!! I can’t wait 🙌🏼
You're welcome!
Thank you for the pointers. We are planning a trip in October for five days. We are excited to go back and look forward to the visit. Your pointers will help us pre-plan our visit.
Enjoy Yosemite!
Thank you Ash, your tips have been invaluable.
Happy to help!
You're definitely right about booking lodging well in advance. Even snagging a decently priced accommodation in Oakhurst feels like a great deal!
Yes, so true! I hope you were able to get what you needed!
Thanks so much for the info. I was planning for the trip to Yosemite and felt overwhelmed. Will definitely check your other videos. 👍
Thanks for watching! Enjoy Yosemite!
Great tips on Yosemite. This channel has good info to help improve visits to the parks. Thanks for your effort to help people. Take care.
Thanks!
This was absolutely the best advice for Yosemite booking. We followed your advice this morning and snagged a 3 day spot in June at Upper Pines. Without your tips, we would have failed...big time. THANKS!
I'm so happy to hear that you'll be staying at Upper Pines! Have an amazing time!
It's the most beautiful place there is! I like this place very much and I want to go there. Hell, It must be amazing to live in this place. I love this country, The national parks here are beautiful. Thank you very much for this video, I really appreciate it. 🙂👍🏞️🌲🏞️
You're welcome! I hope you are able to visit soon!
Reservations are now required to get into Yosemite because of how busy it was last summer 2023. We were there July 30-31st from Wisconsin. Waterfalls were still had a large flow rate because of all the snow the prior winter. Tioga road opened only two weeks earlier. Dean
Yeah, it was kind of a mess last year haha
Hi Ash! Great video, such a great information you provided. I found it really useful.
My name is Eddie from Argentina and I'm planning to visit the US and try to go to Yosemite in March, between the 12th and 14th. I believe the park would still open but I want to understand how much hike I would be able to do. I'm used to doing a lot of hiking here but always avoiding snow. If I understood correctly there will be snow on those days I chose, am I right? Do you recommend that I visit Yosemite in another season? (I'm not sure when in my life I'm going to be able in short term to visit North America again)
You'll find a full articles on dirtinmyshoes.com about the Best Time to Visit Yosemite, and that should help you make your decision based on what's important to you!
Hi Ash, your video is really good. Congrats.... Iam planning to go in October, and I will rent a RV and make a spot reservation for campgrounds. Iam thinking in North Pines, Lower Pines, Upper Pines. What is your favorite campground? Other question, is there a specific hour to use a generator in the campgrounds?
You'll find that info here: www.dirtinmyshoes.com/all-about-camping-yosemite-national-park/ Have fun!
Your videos are incredibly helpful, thank you. My wife and I are honeymooning in California and are planning a two day trip to Yosemite in May! I do have a question - we have a reservation for Saturday, May 18. Do we still need to get to the park super early? We’d rather not wait in a line for hours, but I’m not sure if we are guaranteed a parking spot since we have a reservation already.
Congrats on your wedding! Your reservation doesn't guarantee a parking spot, so you'll still want to get there early!
@@DirtInMyShoes Good to know. Thanks so much!
Thank you, Anyway to rent Ebikes for our trip? We can not bring our bikes
You can find bike rental options here: www.nps.gov/thingstodo/bikingyosemite.htm
@@DirtInMyShoes Thank you, Any webseits for camping ? I tried a link but its will not work
Hi, if I should visit Yosemite around the last week of november, will it be safe to drive there from san francisco? 1st time driving in US. Would you recommend staying there overnight ?
It's hard to say what it will be like at that time of year...snow is possible. And yes, I would stay overnight!
@@DirtInMyShoes thanks!
So what's up with the law about not being able to film or take photos to use on social media? Have they ever resolved this? It's basically kept me from visiting national parks these days.
I haven't heard anything on it lately.
Honestly, camping along Tioga Pass Road is MUCH nicer than camping in Yosemite Valley. The campgrounds may not be as close to Yosemite Valley attractions. But the campsites are much more spacious, spread out, private, and ‘nature immersing’. It is also easier to get a reservation. By contrast, camping in Yosemite Valley is much more like camping at a music featival or RV park. Also, summer weather is MUCH nicer along Tioga Pass Road than in blazing hot Yosemite Valley. And although Yosemite Valley gets all the love, the high country should NEVER be looked at as a downgrade.
I agree...I love camping along the Tioga Road! But it has a much shorter season and isn't as convenient for first-time visitors. When we return to Yosemite, now that we've been many times, we tend to stick to those more off-the-beaten-path areas and campgrounds!
I really wish I had been able to go in the 70's. It seems like everything else tourists have ruined what was pure magic.
You can still find magic there!
You would’ve been able to find a reason to miss the magic back then also. The magic has nothing to do with anybody but you.
