The first audio accompanies you on the Highway 120 route from Groveland, California to Yosemite Valley. Travel time is approximately one hour. Along this route you'll learn the history of this area, and get a feel for the pioneers and outlaws of the gold rush era. You'll have an opportunity to visit the Hetch Hetchy area, the Giant Redwoods of the Merced Grove and stand at the base of Bridalveil Falls. You'll see famous land features such as Half Dome, El Capitan, Cathedral rocks, the Three Brothers and the tallest waterfall in North America, Yosemite Falls. The lush meadows and stunning scenery of Yosemite Valley will inspire you and the wildflowers along the way will entertain your eye with color. After you arrive in Yosemite Valley the printed insert offers options and ideas for places to visit and things to do. Depending on your interests and time schedule you choose how much time to spend here. The second audio in this tour takes you from Yosemite Valley to the Glacier Point area of the park. The travel time for this part of the tour is about 40 minutes. You'll hear more stories and fun facts as you ascend into the higher elevations and become familiar with the trails and flora along the way. The 16 page booklet includes a hiking map and trail guide filled with information. The audio adventure concludes at a developed area of the park called Glacier Point where stunning views of Vernal and Nevada Falls, the Clark Range, Cathedral Peak, Red Peak Pass and the Sierra Nevada will command your attention and "Wow!" you with the scenic beauty.
