My and my girl are living in San Diego and are planning a back country camping trip in Yosemite in mid-late August for about 4 nights (may split it into 2 and 2 depending on supplies). Neither of us have ever been there and Im wondering, so we can buy our wilderness passes soon, what areas would be good during that time? We are looking to do some hiking, so if anyone has a good 30 mile loop or something that would be superb! Really any suggestions or tips would help since we have never been. We are MOST DEFINITELY looking to avoid crowds, which i understand will be hard that time of year, but again, and sort of suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated!
Also, as far as the wilderness passes, do you have to get one per night, or is it a one time thing for the whole trip?
Thanks in advance!
Doug
