The Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne:
"The Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne is the notable canyon section of the river valley of the Tuolumne River, located within Yosemite National Park, in Tuolumne County and the Sierra Nevada, California. As defined by the United States Geological Survey, the canyon begins at Glen Aulin and ends directly above Hetch Hetchy Valley.
The Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne starts at Glen Aulin, immediately below the confluence of Cold Canyon, Conness Creek, and the Tuolumne River. Here, the valley walls pull away from each other and become steeper. The water meanders and forms deep pools. After the waterfall that marks the end of Glen Aulin, the canyon becomes deeper again, and roughly V-shaped in cross section. The walls are not as steep and bare as those of Yosemite Valley. The flora of the valley bottom is a haphazard melange of chaparral, manzanita scrub and oak woodland characteristic of the foothills and lowlands with a coniferous forest reminiscent of (but different from) that found above the canyon rim. This vegetation clings and clambers up every ledge of the valley walls to the top, giving it a lusher appearance than Yosemite Valley, though this area in fact experiences a drier climate.
Many dramatic waterfalls are found in the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne. Whereas Yosemite Valley's celebrated falls occur on tributary streams along the sides, these lie on the main river itself. Many watercourses do join the Tuolumne River, but their canyons form deep clefts in the sides of the Grand Canyon and descend to its bottom. The Tuolumne's own bed, beginning even above Glen Aulin, is fashioned as a great staircase punctuated by waterfalls.
A trail runs along the Tuolumne River from its headwaters to below Pate Valley (though it leaves the valley floor for some time to avoid the impassable Muir Gorge). It is diligently built, but due to the nature of the terrain it is often rocky, steep and generally difficult. The walking distance from the Tioga Road to the Glen Aulin High Sierra Camp is roughly 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) . White Wolf campground, southeast of Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, is within day-hiking distance of the canyon rim, but the return trip from the very bottom is long and steep. Between the eastern tip of the reservoir and the point where the trail begins the climb to White Wolf, the valley is a trackless wilderness."_Wikipedia

I liked your video! The subtle piano, with the natural sounds of the water was quite soothing. Have hiked that trail twice in the same direction as you did. Definitely one of best hikes in Yosemite! The hike up and out to White wolf is no joke. Thanks for sharing. 😊

Indeed, it's absolutely one of the best routes in Yosemite. I had to finish it in 2 days, so the second day, 25 miles from Glen Aulin Hight Sierra Camp to White Wolf was not easy. Plus, the WW parking lot was closed at that time, so i had to hike another mile to Tioga Road😂. Overall, the scenery was really beautiful and I would say it was one of my favorite Yosemite backpacking memories. Thanks for watching and leaving awesome comments.😊

Hello Becca! what an Awesome Waterfalls, and I like the Editing how fazed out then reappeared farther out. Nicely done. Setting up and hiking away and then hiking back editing out the return. Very cool scenery, amazing Waterfalls, and the forest is awesome with the Rock formations. There's fires out here and didn't want to breathe smoke or especially ash. 👦🤘🛣🌲⛰️🧗 thanks for sharing another beautiful adventure
