Yosemite is one of the great natural wonders of the world but much of it has been relatively inaccessible when snow covers the ground. Now, author Michael C. White opens up a whole world of possibilities. For those folks willing to travel under their own power, a new playground exists. Like his best-selling Snowshoe Trails of Tahoe, White describes the area's best snowshoe trips, all chosen for their great scenery and easy accessibility. With custom-made topographic maps and precise directions to each trailhead, this book shows exactly where to go and describes each trip in detail so you can choose precisely the kind of outing you want. Select from short, easy jaunts to daylong tours. Listed for each trip is a difficulty rating, a starting elevation, and the mileage. The book also gives the reader information on trailhead parking, travel, and lodging. This is a great book for anyone's travel and outdoor library.

Yosemite Snowshoe Trails,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Snowshoe Trails of Yosemite (Paperback)
This book was recommended to me right before my December 2010 Winter Trip to Yosemite. I'm very familiar with all the great places to hike in Yosemite, but this book really points out the best places to snowshoe in Yosemite. It was extremely helpful for every trek.
