LEMBERT DOME, YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK

My YOUTUBE video of YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK

Lembert Dome is a granite dome in Yosemite National Park, California, USA. Lembert Dome soars 800 feet (240 m) above Tuolumne Meadows and the Tuolumne River and can be hiked starting at the Tioga Road in the heart of Tuolumne Meadows, 8 miles west of the Tioga Pass Entrance to Yosemite National Park.

It´s a hiking very easey, just take around 30 minutes to get the dome. You only have to be careful when you are almost in the dome because you could fall down. When we were there, a old man was a little scare to hiking alone to the top, so he wait us and came with us, so if you are a little scare too, you know that the best option is wait for others hikers and go with them.

Lembert Dome was named after John Baptist Lembert, a homesteader in Tuolumne Meadows.

Rock climbers can scale the face from the parking lot just off the Tioga Road, but hikers can simply walk up the back side or take the challenging steeper trek up the face starting from just east of the parking lot.
