So coming in from the East, (Idaho) and trying to minimize the permit and main starting/finishing points. So my question would be to ask about a loop hike over 5-7 days starting near or at Tuolumne, with the main goal of looping thru to the valley floor, seeing the sites, and then ascending back up and around to our car. Starting at a non descript TH or whatever, just hoping to make it about the hiking :)
Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.
edit; I should have added my hiking partner has never seen the Sierra, or Yosemite, and so I’m trying to give a nice tour!
