We will be spending the day hiking and sightseeing within Yosemite National Park. Yosemite is steeped in history, being the former home of some of America's foremost conservationists including John Muir and Ansel Adams and is one of America's first National Parks. On this outing, we'll visit the impressive groves of Giant Sequoia Trees. The Big Trees are the largest living things on earth, as measured by volume, and never disappoint whether you are seeing them for the first time or the 100th time. Plan on seeing the 1800-year old Grizzly Giant, one of the largest trees in the park and certainly the most famous. We offer a variety of hiking options to any of Yosemite's iconic destinations, all catered to your personal interests and abilities.

This is an unforgettable journey into Yosemite's second major watershed-the Tuolumne. After dropping into the canyon, we'll spend the next several days hiking beneath its immense granite walls, taking refreshing dips in gorgeous swimming holes, and relishing the sights and sounds of the many waterfalls along the way. This trip offers time for a meditative exploration of the Yosemite backcountry, in a remote part of Yosemite that few people ever visit. Excellent trip for those who are new to backpacking, but looking for a challenge.

Deep in the heart of the Sierra Nevada Mountains lays the incomparable Yosemite Valley. There, you'll discover Half Dome, El Capitan, all 3 of North America's tallest waterfalls, and the "Wild and Scenic" Merced River. It is such a wildly impressive natural landscape that it has earned its own nickname "The Incomparable Valley". Join us here where we'll follow in the footsteps of John Muir, feel the power of the waterfalls, and contemplate what it was like when this entire region was covered in ice thousands of feet thick. You'll spend your days with your interpretive mountain guide, hiking and exploring on- and off-the-beaten path. Each day brings more highlights and plenty of photographic opportunities.
