  Moon Handbooks aren't your average guides. For more than 30 years, these books have appealed to an eclectic group of travelers, from backpacking students to solo adventurers to families on vacation (and a budget). Plunging waterfalls, stark granite, alpine lakes, pristine meadows, giant sequoia trees, and raging rivers - you'll find them all in Yosemite National Park. From Yosemite Valley's famous waterfalls - three of which are among the tallest in the world - to the towering granite domes and glistening meadows of Tioga Pass. Yosemite is a place that can only be described in superlatives. Local author Ann Marie Brown helps you have a truly personal experience, with tips on where to go and how to make the most of your time. Ann includes vital information on getting to and through the park from San Francisco, Fresno, and Reno. Complete with maps, photographs, illustrations, and special emphasis on leading destinations such Yosemite Valley, Hetch Hetchy, the Eastern Sierra, Wawona, Glacier Point, and the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, Moon Handbooks Yosemite has the tools you need to create your own unique trip.
