Another beautiful hike I completed a few weeks ago. Four Mile Trail is one of the top rated trails in Yosemite National Park. It goes from Yosemite Valley all the way to Glacier Point. In the summer, it is packed, but in October - November the number of people vacationing in the park thankfully decreases allowing us, locals, enjoy the peace and solitude of the trail. I am probably exaggerating solitude, because even in late October there are quite a few people attempting this hike.
It is a difficult hike because of the elevation gain and overall mileage. Don't be fooled by the name of the trail, it is certainly not a four mile hike. Alltrails clocked 9.4 miles total. With elevation gain of 3500 feet, it kick your butt. Acrophobe Factor: I am afraid of heights, really! But this hike did not make me feel scared at all. The views are worth every lost calorie to get to the top:
