2023 Yosemite in the Fall

We try to get to Yosemite Valley at least once a year. It’s really become the only time we use our Lazy Daze anymore since most of our trips these days are either international or offroading in our 4WD.

I love our motorhome though, so I am always excited to take a trip in it. It’s so cozy.

We have found that our favorite time of the year in Yosemite is late October / early November because that is when the foliage is best and the summer crowds have diminished.

However, unfortunately the falls would not be running as they were in October of 2021 (after the atmospheric rivers). The combination of the reds, orange, and yellows of the trees against the backdrop of the falls had been very special.

Camping reservations are always hard to come by, so I spent a good deal of time constantly checking for cancellations and managed to piece together days, with only having to change campsites once.

I also managed to get an extra site for Tommy and Erin (our son and daughter-in-law) for the second weekend we were there.

So off we went.
