    Tips

    December 12, 2023

    The climb is relentless, the views are breathtaking, and the memories will last a lifetime. Heading west from Lee Vining towards Yosemite via Tioga Pass is not for the faint of heart. However the rewards are more than worth it, as this is one of the quintessential rides in all of California. Two things to keep in mind:

    1) due to elevation this road is closed from the first snowfall until June or even July some years.

    2) The NPS allows bike only traffic for a couple of days each year before the road opens to all traffic once the snow has been cleared.
