Yosemite will always hold a special place in my heart. This is one of my favorite places on earth to go backpacking. Every time I come, I bring more friends so that they can experience the magic that is Yosemite. Get a permit, get into the wilderness (please, with a guide / experienced friend if you're not experienced!!!), and immerse yourself in something beyond the touristy part of the park. Also, please PLEASE please leave no trace - pack out your trash, and any litter you find while here.
