Description

This is the amazing beautiful canyon of the Tuolumne River that runs for approximately 30 miles from Glen Aulin down to Pate Valley.

** This area is work in progress.  It also has a long and varied but mostly obscure history. While scrambling around down there I've found a fair number of old bolts and pins but little to information to be found about the routes. I encourage anyone to add information and routes if they know them!

Getting There

Hike To Glen Aulin (about 5 miles) from Tuolumne Meadows. Continue down the river on good hikers trail from there. Wilderness permits required for overnight use.
