Sigh..the bus conundrum. You could always walk in a 1/8 mile...get away from the road?Quote

We had friends with us that have not been in the park in 30 years so they wanted to stop at the "touristy" spots and take pictures. The next day we went to Tuolumne Meadows to get away from the crowds. As for me, I have days that I can't walk across my living room so sometimes a 1/8 of a mile is too much for me and all I can do is sit and look at the view while my family and friends are having all the fun hiking.Quote

Still would rather see 80 hikers spilling out of a YARTS than 40 more cars stuck in gridlock, all trying to find a Curry parking spot.

You got it. Or think the proper attire to wear to a park is a miniskirt with 4 inch spiked high heels and there is snow on the ground. Yes, I really saw that last winter.Quote

I was referring to those tour buses where people are there for a few hours, are really not interested in seeing much of the park
You mean the ones that are only there for selfies?

Also saw a girl in a mini skirt and heels one time going up the Mist Trail. The guys in our group really enjoyed it since she was not wearing panties. I will let your imagination take over.Quote

That can be really amusing at the Vernal Fall bridge.

Last year, coming down from my winter Cloud's rest trip, I ran into an unbelievable amount of people with iPads, heels, etc ,etc trying to get up the trail lol.
I've seen a guy "pushing" a baby stroller "up" the 500 steps to Vernal Falls.
