North Peak

Just Outside Yosemite National Park

North Peak is a wonderful mountain to climb. I have reached the summit in May, just one week after the Tioga Road opened, and again in late July.

The May hike was a snow climb with crampons and ice axe because the snow-covered slopes are very steep. The July hike had very little snow but lots of broken and lose rocks.

The view of Mount Conness and its lakes from North Peak are the greatest. A must hike! Camp over at Saddlebag Lake so you can get an early hiking start.

This peak is located just outside Yosemite National Park.
