DOGS ALLOWED: Yes, on a leash.

We will be hiking on the outskirts of Yosemite to see some stunning waterfalls! Corlieu Falls and Red Rock Falls are our destination.

We will start with the Corlieu hike, then head to the Red Rock Falls. Though the elevation gain is only about 500 ft, we will be almost a mile high in elevation! We will rest as much as we need for any new hikers. Take a half day off, and be surrounded by the sounds of nature, rushing water, and being around our inclusive community. This event will be almost 4 miles of hikes, so please be ready to spend at least half a day hiking, but believe me when I say, the views are worth it!

I will reach out to set up possible carpooling to help with parking as it may get busy!

Pincushion Mountain is our destination!

The trail length is 2.4 miles, but  at the top, we will have a view of Millerton, Table Mountain, and the nearby rolling foothills (if we don't have the thick fog we've been having)!
