Even better is get out and run some of the trails early, running in the valley is pretty cool.
The valley is still pretty crowded in September, but the high country is thinning out. Toulumne is really nice that time of year.
For the lungless smoker, the hike to the Vernal falls bridge is pretty easy and has a nice view of the falls. With enough time, even a smoker can make the top of the Mist Trail.
Anyone with intel on the smoke situation there right now? Looks like it's been fairly bad on the webcams. I'm set to spend a couple nights in Half Dome Village next week, but I can still cancel up until tonight.
I don't want to make the trip if the views are going to be obscured.
The Yosemite fires seem to be settling down and the weather is getting cooler with occasional rain. I'd say next week is probably good unless something new pops up.

My son was in Tuolumne last week, said no significant smoke. He was in the valley.
Oh nice. Good to know. Going to be there Monday night through Thursday. Pretty excited about it, actually.

Still a lot of smoke up high.
And snow too
Yeah, I headed out of the park this morning, and wanted to go see Toloume (sp?) Meadow, but the road was closed until the snow melted off. Looked like 4-6 inches.Quote:
