Notes
Hikers will start at the trailhead in Yosemite Valley. This is one of the shortest (1.3 Miles) and most popular trails in Yosemite. The trail is mostly shaded and is progressive in incline until you reach the base of the waterfall where mist sprays onto the hikers. Depending on the time of the year hikers can be totally drenched by the time they pass the mist from the waterfall. The final 15 minutes of the trail is a very steep climb up rocks to the top of the waterfall. Once atop the falls there is a pool of stagnate water that allows many people to swim and lounge. Again, depending on the time of the year this pool will have a stronger current and may be deeper. There is also a 20 degree slope of rock with flowing water that allows people to slide into the pool (if current it too strong this is not safe).

Unscheduled - South Lake Tahoe

Average Rating (48):
     

City
South Lake Tahoe, CA, United States
Notes
With Lake Tahoe and the Sierra Nevada Mountains just outside, it might seem redundant to list other attractions. A view anywhere can be a breathtaking attraction in itself. Lake Tahoe has been called "America's Treasure" by politicians, travel writers and nature lovers. And the 72-mile drive along its shoreline has been named "The Most Beautiful Drive in America."
