We made it to glacier and she said yes! Photos to come!by Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra
I'll reiterate what chulavista said! Great conditions right now other than the snow melt causing the trail to be a creek. Microspikes were great for the last 0.25 mile.by Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra
Heard good things about nelder grove, but also not above going elsewhere.by Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra
Thinking about stopping by Nelder Grove on the way to Yosemite from San Fran as a way to quench the thirst for seeing some giant sequoias since Mariposa grove is closed. Should we make the 2 hour detour or no?by Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra

I've decided to go for it.... Go as far as we can without getting sketchy. The lady agreed to an all day epic. I'll report back with photos. Wish me luck.by Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra
Well thanks! I'll definitely weigh my options when we get to Nevada falls and see if it looks worth the effort. We'll most likely head out shortly after sunrise and go as far as we can. Apparently last week a couple of hikers (novice or not.. I don't know) made it up to GP and thought that the shuttle would be running back into the village. Just the fact they didn't know the road was closeby Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra
Thanks so much! Looks like I'll be bringing some snowshoes and gaiters.by Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra
Thanks so much for the reply. I didn't look at the date! 2014 isn't recent... you're right. I'll rule out half mile for sure then. Panorama it is. Any other info on how this trail is currently?by Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra
Hey everyone. I stumbled across your forum after days of searching for trail conditions, photos, and information in my quest to get up to glacier point. Let me tell you a story.... Let's take it back to 2005. While on vacation with my family in San Francisco, we did a quick day trip to Yosemite, and like most people do... I fell in love. I was 17 at the time, I had started rock climbingby Grasshopper - Backpacking and Hiking Yosemite and the Sierra
