Meeting Location: Porcupine Creek Trailhead
Elevation Gain: 2,328′

This hike offers a little bit of everything, from meandering trails through majestic alpine forests to some of the most stunning panorama views Yosemite has to offer! Start off with a gorgeous walk through the north rim woods on a moderate, downhill trail surrounded by pine and fir forests, crossing two creeks along your way. You can extend the hike by taking a side tour to Indian Rock, where an immaculate arch will blow you away! Emerging from the woods, the hike takes visitors up to Indian Ridge for an expansive view of Tenaya Canyon and the Merced River Canyon. Nearing North Dome, the breathtaking scenery opens up to a larger-than-life view of Half Dome, with the best view of all coming from the peak of North Dome itself!
