North Dome Frommer's Recommended

Location About 1 mile past the campground is a sign for Porcupine Creek at a closed road. Park in the designated area, North of The Valley
Transportation Take CA 120 east to the Porcupine Flat Campground, past White Wolf
Other 10 miles/5 hr. Moderate

Frommer's Review

Walk south down the abandoned road toward the Porcupine Creek Campground. A mile past the campground the trail hits a junction with the Tenaya Creek and Tuolumne Meadows Trail. Pass a junction toward Yosemite Falls and head uphill toward North Dome. The ascent is treacherous because of loose gravel, but from the top you can catch an all-encompassing view of Yosemite Valley, second only to the view from Half Dome.
