The Mission

Down the canyon, then back up it

Fly into Sacramento Saturday, grab permits and bear cans, and camp near the trailhead. Sunday we drop 3,500 feet into Pate Valley. Monday and Tuesday we climb back up the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne past three waterfalls to Glen Aulin. Wednesday we walk out to the cars.

Route line computed from OpenStreetMap trail data; elevations from Open-Meteo. Neither AllTrails nor onX offers a public API, so: the GPX button downloads our exact route to import into onX Backcountry, Gaia, Garmin, or CalTopo (onX: My Content > Import on their web map), and the other buttons open their trail pages.
