Tips from locals
When it's hot and crowded in the Yosemite Valley, we head to Tuoloumne Meadows to hike, climb, walk and enjoy the cooler temperatures and smaller crowds. There are beautiful granite domes all through Tuoloumne, which makes the drive stunning... even if you don't get out of your car.
I prefer this northern part of Yosemite more than Yosemite Valley. Less crowded, lots of lakes and domes.
