Yosemite was wild this year. We were keeping our fingers crossed until the day we arrived that we'd be able to find some useful hikes to complete in the park. As usual, the park delivered. This episode covers the first part of our trip in the park where we backpacked the Hetch Hetchy Loop. To us, the loop looked like a perfect one-night and two-day loop but most people we met on the trail were out for 3 or 4 days. The route starts at the Hetch Hetchy resevoir trail. We went clockwise so we turned off onto Miguel Meadows road and then headed toward Vernon Lake where we stopped hiking after about 12 miles. We spent the night at Vernon Lake and then did a longer 16.5 mile day through Tiltill Valley and Rancheria Falls before getting to experience crossing Wapama and Tueeualala Falls in a high snow year. It was an exhausting second day but the kind of experience we look back on with so much fondness. Let us know what you think!
