Yosemite - Tioga Road - Bikes Only
« on: May 19, 2021, 12:28:42 pm »
Yosemite National Park has announced that Tioga Road will be opened May 21 thru May 23 for bicyclists and pedestrians only.
This is an incredible chance to ride one of the most beautiful ride in the world - in a lovely season.
Park Entrance Pass and fees required if you drive in and start at Crane Flat.
If you can find a place to park just east of Tioga Pass, then no Entrance Pass is required, just fee.

The Entrance Passes are a new thing this year and are fairly limited.
The idea is to reduce visitation because of Covid - 
but the NPS has been wanting to reduce visitation for years, now.
(Not a big fan of NPS admin - tough job, but they often wiggle the truth.)

Wish I were in California, because I would sure get this ride in.
No services - bring all food, water, clothing necessary.
46 miles one-way; 92 miles r.t.
