No guards at the gate recently so people have been getting in free. I dunno with the latest restrictions, though.

I can get in free with senior pass (got it when it was only $10) and veteran's ID. Free entry when you enter via YARTS bus. Stops from Merced to the park (and senior discount)

Higher roads are closed, but the bus only stops in the valley. Free shuttles there.

Carry chains.

Here are the live links (they show up as images here, and links you can copy for bookmarks. I bookmark them. Hacked for your copying pleasure. )

If you can't copy the image URL (mobile devices), I am including URL's missing the h, so you can copy and paste and bookmark.

Half Dome over Ahwahnee Meadow/Ahwahnee hotel (behind the trees)


High Sierra (shot from Sentinel Dome)


Yosemite Falls (wait until it starts raining in the fall)


El Capitan. (basically Valley View, from Turtleback)


The live links will go dark at night.
