The NPS has all the stuff on permits and has a basic overview of trails
http://www.nps.gov/yose/wilderness/ http://www.nps.gov/yose/wilderness/
trails.com has a lot of info, but it seems like you have to register, and maybe pay now.
Various blogs and online journals exist. For example,
http://www.thebackcountry.org/ http://www.thebackcountry.org/
You need a wilderness permit, and need to rent or buy a bear-proof container. A bus runs daily in summer between the Valley and Tuolumne (and beyond and back). See http://www.yarts.com http://www.yarts.com/
