Hey everyone - I normally don't take my hammock set up on a first trip to a new area, but I'm going solo this trip and would love to not have to carry the weight of my 2p tent/buy a solo tent. From my research it seems like there should be good options for hanging a hammock on my route, but I'd love some confirmation. My current plan is to camp at Glen Aulin > May Lake > Sunrise Lakes > Cloud's Rest > exit and spend the night at the backpackers camp in Yosemite Valley.
Also any advice on best spots to camp around Cloud's Rest? Even if I take my tent, I wouldn't want to camp on the summit (because, rude) but would still love to have a killer view from my sleeping spot. I had seen a map on the forums that someone had posted indicating a good area, but I didn't download it right away and now I can't find it.
I'm there from Aug 10-17. Will mosquitoes still be super active?
Any other advice about things not to miss/things to watch out for on this route would be appreciated. I'm pretty thorough with research, but there's no substitute for first hand experience.
Thanks!
