Explore the majestic mountains and lush meadows, the picturesque waterfalls and alpine lakes. Scale the heights of Yosemite's iconic Half Dome or Sequoia's Mount Whitney. Enjoy meandering through Evolution Valley or Tuolumne Meadows; pausing to take in the beauty of Ediza Lake or cooling your feet in the King's River.
