BirdDog Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I'll be taking my boys (ages 9 & 14) on a road trip in July with a stop at Yosemite. Anyone have some info/beta on easy (5.4 - 5.6) routes in Yosemite? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Holliman Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 If you go midweek to avoid the crowds, the SE Buttress on Cathedral Peak is the first suggestion that comes to mind. Also ones that immediately come to mind: Conness West Ridge (3 pitches up to about 5.6, then loads and loads of 4th class), Conness North Ridge (a rappel down a 5.6 pitch, then great 4th class up to the summit), Tenaya Peak NW Buttress (5.5). I mentioned just routes around Tuolumne, both because I prefer climbs to summits, and also because the valley will be awfully hot in July.
