Patrick HPSeptember 29, 2018The earlier you get prepared the best is the experience. Get water, food, go hiking and never ever feed the animals. Take pictures, enjoy nature. Take a deep breath of fresh air and look around you :)
Heather FahertyFebruary 13, 2013If you start this hike early afternoon, you'll reach Columbia rock around 3. You can go a bit further for an even better view or go full 7 miles. On the way down, stop at CR again for a setting sun!
Dianne YabutSeptember 22, 2017Did the upper Yosemite hike and it was definitely challenging but fun at the same time. Amazing views the whole time. It took my husband and I 2 1/2hours to reach the top. Dress in layers- Paul BerensApril 29, 2013Don't underestimate the water you need if you're going all the way to Upper. No water on the trail, but there are streams if you have a filter or if you're trusting to drink directly from it.
- Anastasia BelozertsevaJuly 20, 2012The hike up gets pretty hard in hot weather, so it's best to do it early in the morning or late-ish afternoon. Don't miss out on the pool at the top of the falls!
Lorene CorleyOctober 25, 2013Make sure to bring lots of water and some food . The hike is rough. Supposed to be the toughest trail- Ted sDecember 25, 2012Remember, anything that goes up must come down & the trail gets pretty slick so if you struggle bring poles.
- Ted sDecember 25, 2012So much incline makes you think you've gone further than you have. Columbia rock (overlook with a fence) is your 1/4 marker.
- Paul BerensApril 29, 2013Rocks on the trail can be pretty slick from mist blown over from the falls, but not appear so.

"By far the coolest time to visit is on nights when bright moonlight forms lunar rainbows, or "moonbows" in Yosemite's waterfalls. Photography workshops can help you find unique compositions."

"It can be tough at times going up but the view at the top is so worth it. There’s a hidden walkway at the top which brings you closer to the edge of the falls"
