5 Day Yosemite Backpacking - Amazing Sunsets

Overview

If you’re looking for an incredible backcountry adventure that isn’t too strenuous, look no further! During this five-day trip you’ll experience some of Yosemite’s pristine wilderness locations. Camp at the base of Mount Hoffman (10,850′) along the shore of May Lake. Swim, relax, or opt for a four-mile roundtrip hike to the summit of Mount Hoffman. Trek through high alpine meadows as you make your way to Polly Dome Lake—a hidden location surrounded partially by granite. Camp at Glen Aulin, nestled at the mouth of the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne River. Amazing sunsets are a specialty along this route! This trip is perfect for a family backpacking adventure, or those wanting something less strenuous.

I had a great 5 days backpacking trip with lasting adventures with my son and Trey as our guide at Yosemite NP. It wasn’t physically easy but so beautiful, exciting and amazing bounding trip with my son. Trey is an amazing guide he cooked, play, took photos, and explained everything to us. I highly recommend this trip to anyone that would like to recharge his batteries. We did many of the sights including El Capitán, North Dome, Yosemite Falls, Eagle Peak among others. I would strongly recommend everyone to experience this trip!!!

Just wanted to take the time to thank all of you for the great experience we had with Kirsten and your whole team overall. This experience pushed us in many ways, we built long term friendships, and showed us some of the most beautiful sceneries we’ve ever encountered. As far as Kirsten goes, just WOW. She knows her gear, cooking, maps, trails, and extremely knowledgeable overall. You guys have a great employee! We will be coming back every year and adding more people to our trips! Thank you guys Moe and Court
