  • Starting from the Mirror Lake Trailhead at shuttle stop #17 in Yosemite Valley, this challenging hike is just under 10 miles round-trip with a grueling 3000 foot elevation gain to the top of Yosemite Valley. Going up the 105 switchbacks is quite challenging due to being so exposed the whole way up. But the views of half dome and Yosemite Valley just keep getting better as you assend. Catch all my videos ‪@theyosemiteguyd‬ to keep up on all my hiking action.

    Been to Yosemite quite a few times and never knew about this trail! Great video, thanks for the info!

      Yeah, it's kind of a butt kicker but less crowded, even in the summertime. Thanks for checking it out!

    Hey there Yosemite Guy'd good to see you out there. November in the valley is such a great time! The crowds have left! 😅
    I don't think I could do that exposed ledge, I have a healthy fear of heights, just watching you made me a little queasy. The views are nice at the top, thanks for taking me along!
    I'm anxiously awaiting the rain were promised! Take Good Care!

      Yes, I am very happy to be able to squeeze in another hike with nice weather, but I would love some good precipitation for Mother Nature. Thanks for watching!

      vfor sure ! I commented even before I watched the video. Watching it now while making my lunch - really enjoyed seeing your culinary masterpiece on the trail ! Would love to try this hike some time, I would probably have to backpack it though. No way I get up there in 3 hours

    Excited to see a new video today. Good looking meal as well. Your hidden falls video from earlier had some corrupt files and missing footage but it may have been the most adventurous barefoot scramble, hope you can try it again sometime. Very cool that your soles enjoy the challenge of so much aggressive terrain. You waited to take off your flips until you were on a less crowded section, hope no one is giving you guff. The fall colors looked great as did all the scenery. Thanks for your quick edit and superfast posting. I truly look forward to all your videos. Thanks

    One of my favorite trails! Looking forward to the video. Have you gone on up the trail to Mt Watkins? More tough trail, but great vistas from the top!

      I haven't done Watkins yet. Definitely on the list though!!

    How long did it take you to get to the North Dome 5.3 mark. Try this hike again later in the day the sun will shine on Half Dome and Tuolumne Canyon.

      It was a little under 2 hours up I think. :). I’ll have to do a late day hike up there this summer

    The Snow Creek Falls trail with an empty Falls is not very intriguing. I’d love to see a video made in April
    Or May…
