Going this Friday? I am going as well! Any tips?

We are staying at the curry village in an unheated tent and coming back on Sunday night it is two of us and we would like to do some hiking. We will have all of Saturday for activities.

Thinking of doing the following hike:
13-mile Valley Floor Loop Trail, you’ll stroll past Yosemite Falls, the base of El Capitan, and Bridal Veil Falls—all with nobody in sight. It’s an old bridle path for horses, so very flat and easy to get to.

Any suggestions based on what is open and is recommended for Intermediate level hikers?

Thanks!

The Valley Loop would be lovely. You could probably get a fair ways up the Mist Trail.

I'm only slightly jealous, since I have plans to go up NEXT weekend. Save some dogwood blooms for me, OK?

I would imagine the hike to top of the Lower Yosemite Fall would be pretty nice too.

Remember to call your mom before you go, its Mother's Day and you might not have reception!
