As is true with all the national parks, Yosemite can't be described in words or photos/video. Being in that Valley, you are immersed in nature like no other place I have experienced. One of my favorite things to experience when hiking in a forest with students was going uphill and having the kids say, "When will we be at the top of the mountain" and I would say, "When you see more sky than a mountain." I was reminded of that when you and Julie reached the top. So beautiful. Thanks for sharing, and much love to you both

There’s so much to do at Yosemite; you found a great trail off the beaten path. Those sequoias are just so impressive every time I see them. Great video!

Trying to get here in 2026. That's the realistic timetable for me. I want to do other parks in the area and along the pacific coast. So beautiful out there.

It's those slightly inclined trails that are the hardest for me. Give me super steep. Even steps. But slight incline with distance.... Ugh. We will be in Yosemite in June for an RV trip including backpacking Little Yosemite Campground on the way to half dome. I appreciate the respect you show these fabulous places.

Well, I'm glad to see that the Mariposa Grove has reopened! It was closed for years because of fire, and I have never been before! I'm really glad you made this video, Randy, because I have a trip planned for May out there. Looks great 👍.

That's great, Eric! Hope you have a wonderful time in May!

Randy and Julie, thanks again for taking us along. I was here back in, probably, the '80s, after driving out from IL. What a trip that was. The difference was that, seeing as how smartphones hadn't yet been invented, 50 of every visitor's best friends weren't receiving instant shots of places, resulting in seriously overcrowded parks. It's nice that more people are now seeing these wonderful places, but it's also sad at the same time, in that the young men from the WPA (?) aren't in the parks doing sorely needed maintenance, like they did during the Depression, and so many of the parks are in desperate need of it.

@AmericasParks 3 ай бұрын

I'd love to see the WPA resurrected for those who want work. They did such an amazing job building our Parks. And their work is standing the test of time.

The bus in when l went there was convenient. I made it to the Grizzly Giant & a bit beyond. My favorite walk in the area, however, was in Nelder Grove. The Grove in the Sierra Nat'l Forest is near Oakhurst. The loop trail to the Chimney Tree, Old Forester, the Ed Tree & the magnificent Bull Buck is terrific...no crowds, an intact Grove & nice Sugar Pines too. I may have told you about this grove previously. If I did pardon the repetition.

Yes, thanks again for the recommendation! Actually, you added some more helpful detail! :)

My daughter and I were in Yosemite July 19th till the 22nd 2023 before heading to Lake Tahoe on our Northern California and Oregon trip. Wish we ran into each other. Randy check out videos of your travels if you got time!

Great job! I haven't been to Mariposa Grove since the wildfires (during the pandemic). Oddly enough, I actually climbed Half Dome during the wildfires. Although the park was relatively empty, Mariposa Grove was off-limits. It's nice to see that is wasn't hit too hard by the fires.

@AmericasParks 3 ай бұрын

Yeah, quite a few have been mentioning the closure. From what I can recall, not a lot of damage from the fire.

3:57 wow what a perfect Forest scene! beautiful video / we have been to the other 2 groves but this one being south we never went there/ thanks for taking us this way! nice Grand Canyon shirt Park Pro that is the way to do it.

Great video Randy! What a beautiful hike and such an impressive Sequoia grove. Yosemite is hands down my favorite park. It is as if it was designed on purpose, just breathtaking. I haven’t done Mariposa Grove yet. It was on the itinerary during our recent trip in 2021, just ran out of time since it would have been a full day adventure. Plus I don’t believe the shuttles were running back then so we were looking at a 10+ mile day. We ended up doing the Tuolumne Grove as an alternative.

@AmericasParks 2 ай бұрын

Hope you can make it back to Mariposa! We actually had Tuolumne Grove on this itinerary, but it was still closed in early summer due to the snow. Even our best planning... :)

As always great video. Thank you. I was there in may and we had to walk up the road to the trail head cause the road was washed out. Dang near killed me but worth it.

Yeah, heard that's a decent hike. Glad to know you made it safely!

Thanks, Randy and Julie, for giving us a tour of the Mariposa Grove. At the end of the video when the two of you were at the viewpoint, I saw a number of blackened trees down below you. I am wondering if dead trees were from the recent devastating fires impacting the sequoias in the past several years?

@AmericasParks 3 ай бұрын

Yes, I believe so, but thankfully the sequoia grove was in decent shape.

Hi , going this July . Do you think that spend all day in Yosemite + Mariposa grave is ok ? The Mariposa grove and Yosemite park is connected by road right ?

@AmericasParks 2 ай бұрын

Yes, they are connected by road, but Mariposa, if you do it well is almost a full day experience. Doing both will be rushed.

Last part of my research two of trees are among 30 largest giant sequoias in the world . In July 6 grove closed and in 2015 , for restoration project and reopened on June 15 2018 . There are mariposa grove museum built since 1030 . It’s sits in shadow of two prominent giant sequoia trees , general Sheridan . It’s listed on national register of historic places in 1978 . Museum features numerous historic photographs and details of mariposa grove . Restrooms are inside . Some of trees in grove such as fallen giant is one of giant largest trees until fell in 1873 . Massachusetts tree is one of most famous trees fell in 1027 . Galen clerk tree have historical importance first seen by Galen Clark and it’s new concept in mid 19 th century. I hope you like research. You really sir as guide tourists for all people around world not only USA citizens. Best wishes for you your dearest ones .

Dr Barry van vantage channel more than 70 episodes about surnames in USA origin meanings. My name is khatoon it’s Turkish origin means Nobel lady as princess. Your name sir is British origin means wolf , shield . It’s derived from names Randall and Randolph. I gathered main information about places you visited briefly here it’s honestly reading about geography and history about USA is interesting how about visiting. Mariposa grove is sequoia grove located near , wawona, California USA in southern most part of Yosemite national park . Largest grove of giant sequoias in park , with several hundred mature examples of tree .
