Everything you hear about the view in Yosemite is true, and everyone tells you to go to Glacier Point to take it all in. For me, I rather enjoyed this view and hike much better. The view is very similar from both spots, but you get more of a 360 degree view from here. The hike up from the road... more

This is a short (1.2 mile one-way) easy trail to the most sublime view in the park. The trail begins at the marked parking area one mile west of Glacier Point. From the parking area the trail to Sentinel Dome heads to the right; the trail to Taft Point and the fissures forks to the left. After an easy climb... more
