Hi again Phil, i've been looking at your suggestions for which trail we should do for our trip and i'm really liking your idea of starting at Tuolomne Meadows, stopping by cathedral point and working down past sunrise lakes to clouds rest. Maybe doing a loop heading back around via the JMT or a larger loop via Merced lake and going back north.
You now have me a bit worried with altitude sickness, which is a good thing because I know in advanced now.
How would you recommend acclamation to the higher elevations esspessaly at Tuolumne Meadows. I'll be there from a Sun-Sunday. (August 12-19) reading online it can take some time to get used to the thinner air.
I like the idea of heading south from T-Meadows but worried that starting there first thing at 8,000 Ft could be a problem. What would you do?
