We had three days exploring the Yosemite national Park. What a fabulous place! For someone who is not a fan of heights, it was quite a challenge but I am so glad that I visited. We were pleased that … Full review by AlisonB492

This place is extremely crowded, full of cars that are circling around, desperately searching for a free parking place. There are multiple parking lots, but they are still not sufficient. I and my bo… Full review by Jana K
Hi everyone. A bit of an urgent one. My family have arrived in Los Angeles and are making their way to Yosemite. Unfortunately there have been major problems in UK with luggage and their 3 cases have been lost. This trip has been cancelled 3 times and it was one of those holidays of a lifetime for an 18th, 21st and 50th! Anyhoo, their main reason for visiting Yosemite was for mountain climbing. All of their equipment is in the suitcase. Is there anywhere where climbing equipment can be hired please or any other suggestions please? Thank you.

While not a mountain climber, there are some serious outdoor stores as you head toward the park. I understand you want to rent equipment. I am not sure if these places rent. …
While not a mountain climber, there are some serious outdoor stores as you head toward the park. I understand you want to rent equipment. I am not sure if these places rent. However, I am sure you can get some hiking boots. It is an amazing place - we just got back a week ago. Good luck.

The Yosemite forum is the best place to ask. The water level needs to be low enough (and it's low this year!), the water temperature needs to be high enough (it's been right around 40 degrees lately), and the air temperature needs to be warm enough (it has snowed recently, but hot weather is coming again.)
Planning a trip to Yosemite in April 2022. Anyone know when they will open the bicycle rentals for the spring season? I wrote the NPS and received a very vague answer.

Hi Next time use the forum rather than this seldom viewed Q&A feature.

Spend as much Tim in Yosemite Valley, it’s breathtaking. You don’t need a “tour” just make lodging reservations in the valley well in advance and just drive there, rent bikes and take in the amazing beauty if the waterfalls, granite, meadows and wildlife. May & June are the best months. Mid summer can get extremely hot and by end of summer waterfalls can be dry.
Getting married in Yosemite in late October and I am having a hard time trying to figure out what kind of cover up or shawl I should buy to wear over my wedding gown. I know the weather can be unpredictable but what advice can anyone give me on if I should buy something sheer, maybe fleece or like faux fur? Should it be thin and lightweight or warmer? Thank you kindly!

Hi I recommend asking on the Yosemite NP forum page. Late October could be 70 degrees or could be snowing or anything in between . If you are lucky, it will be 65 degrees, sunny, with a gentle breeze. I would go for a thin but warm layer. Best wishes (from a June Yosemite bride!)
