There is a less stressful way of getting into Yosemite Park. Take Highway 140. The highway doesn’t climb up and over like Highway 120, where tire chains is sometimes required. The city of Mariposa is the highpoint. Yosemite Valley Floor is 4,000 feet. The cold front moving in might cause snow on Valley Floor.
Yeah, Mariposa was the route I was more than likely going to take. The cold and nastiness just completely turned the wife off (real feel -2 Friday and 8” in the valley) Granddaughters, 8 and 10, can pretty much take or leave it. Great day whale watching, nice hike on the just north of Big Sur (coast highway washed out 11 miles south of Monterey Monday). Swimming at hotel and aquarium tomorrow, then Muir Woods and what we can find on the coast north of San Francisco through Monday.
