USA
Salt Lake City
We’ve been to southern Utah but not Salt Lake City, so we made that a stopover on our way home.
Mono Lake
Mono Lake is the reason we came to this area. The tufas were everything I imagined. So unique.
Eastern Sierra
It was a long drive from Wawona to Mammoth Lakes since the road through Yosemite was closed due to snow, but it was still scenic.
Yosemite Valley Views
Tunnel View on the Wawona Road and Valley View on the El Portal Road are two great places to get views of Yosemite Valley.
Curry Village
Our cabin in Curry Village was charming, right on the shuttle route, and kept out the bears. We also saw wildlife up close.
Sentinel Falls
The shuttle stop for Sentinel Falls is #11, Four Mile Trail. You can also get nice views of Yosemite Falls from there.
Stoneman Meadow
Stoneman Meadow is near Curry Village and offers good views of Staircase Falls, Half Dome, the Royal Arches, and more.
Yosemite Falls
You can see Yosemite Falls from a number of places in Yosemite Valley. There is one place to get up close and in your face. (Literally)
