I just spoke to someone at the Wilderness Center, she said that it is not possible to pass through the valley on one permit so, as suggested above, I think we will go via Tenaya Lake. It is interesting though that you are able to stop en-route at Tuolumne Meadows without any issues. Anyway, all sorted now, thanks for the help.by Alexbaird - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada.

Oh ok. I will be going in September. There are no permits available to reserve from Yosemite Valley. Would we be able to walk past Happy Isles (i.e. down Snow Creek, past Mirror Lake and then round the corner towards Half Dome) on our original permit? Basically, does walking that route involve passing any new trailheads and therefor needing new permits? The maps are quite unclear about thisby Alexbaird - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada.

Thanks, that clears it up! If I go to the Awahnee it will only be for one drink.by Alexbaird - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
Before I get a Wilderness Permit I want to check if my proposed route is ok. I have searched long and hard but can't seem to find an answer to my question (maybe it's just too obvious!) I want to enter at Porcupine Creek, go south through Snow Creek then past Half Dome and up the JMT to Tuolumne Meadows 3 or 4 days later. First off, is it possible to do this route, which I think means going paby Alexbaird - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
