10) Yosemite

Vistied: Monday, July 27th, 2009

Yosemite is a park which really requires multiple days to get the most out of. Unfortunately, we spent only a day there.

The sequoias are fascinating - not the easiest part of the park to get to, but well worth the bus trip. But just as breathtaking is Yosemite Valley - and Tioga Pass has some incredible views as well. And that's just the portion of the park we saw something of; there's a lot more we didn't even begin to investigate.

I had no real exposure to Yosemite before - about all I knew of it was some photos Mark Jackson has posted - and I definitely want to get back.
