First protected in 1864 and designated as the 3rd national park in 1890, Yosemite is home to countless natural icons, including Yosemite Falls, the world's 5th tallest waterfall; El Capitan, one of the largest exposed monoliths of granite in the world; and Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, which were the first scenic natural areas set aside by a national government for public benefit and appreciation.
With so many spectacular historical, scientific and scenic resources and recreational opportunities—which include backpacking, hiking, world-class climbing, fishing, camping and numerous winter pursuits—Yosemite has something for everyone.

Great maps for day hiking Yosemite
There are lots of free materials on Yosemite trails but I still really enjoyed this booklet of maps with suggested day hikes. The hikes are really great. The info provided for each hike is accurate and super helpful for figuring where to park and what to bring with you and how hard or easy the hike will be. So while these maps are not strictly speaking necessary for day hiking Yosemite, they were really helpful and allowed me to plan hikes on the fly, including going off trail when in the wilderness.
Nifty to have
I have the larger Yosemite Maps as well, but this is nice to have as well since it is a detailed look at specific hikes and areas.
Great product
These maps are some of the best. Durable, accurate, and easy to use and read.
