Hello Everyone- New member to the Forum here. Some friends and I are planning a 7 night/7.5 day backpacking trip in Yosemite starting May 18th, ending May 25th. Our preferred route is to begin at Hetch Hetchy and take the Rancheria Falls trails north of the reservoir to Rancheria Mountain/Pleasant Valley, down to Pate Valley into the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne, east to Glen Aulin/Tuolumne Mby cfitzrun - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada.
