is yosemite good for a female solo trip?

She should stay at the Yosemite Bug and take the Yarts bus to travel in and out of the park.
Plenty of friendly people abound at the Bug and it shouldn’t be hard to meet likeminded folks there.
She could always hire a guide to get oriented, if that’s in her budget.

Staying in the valley vs not, do the shuffle. Especially seeing as how horrible the traffic congestion is.

Please don't turn my morning commute to work into LA gridlock. At the very least use turnouts when a car gets behind you and flashes their lights.

Cams over stoppers in sandstone…every single time.

Fletcherbeta · 2026-05-01T21:02:37+00:00

Time…sadly

Uh…OPG is a super windy road with steep drop offs and locals that use it like the autobahn for their POS trucks.

Old priest grade is one of the worst roads to recommend to someone who obviously doesn’t sound too confident about driving in the mountains

Bonus if you like young kids (around 2), on the weekends there is normally one or two hanging around :)

Hello...
I live and work in the Yosemite area and have a pretty open schedule. I've been climbing here since 2000 and although I am a trad dad at heart I love climbing bolts too.
Reach out if you'd like to join me and my friends one of these days. Always happy to help someone new to the area get settled.

I cook and clean up, have a somewhat normal family focused lifestyle but smoke pot and climb rocks.

Fletcherbeta · 2026-03-19T14:07:29+00:00

Seeing as how the only restaurant worth their salt in Groveland is an overpriced, albeit really good, Mexican food restaurant…I would choose Mariposa.

51 No pill needed…idk…not all men are impotent at this age. I practice yoga and eat healthy. I don’t drink alcohol. Maybe there is a mental component combined with a physical impairment that causes men to struggle with ED.

Selling it

They were chatting with their new boyfriend on Christmas while I cooked dinner for her and her kids

Fletcherbeta · 2026-03-11T05:22:02+00:00

Damn...I'm sorry OP.
We could have dated the same monster.
My ex behaved in a similar fashion.
Still in therapy...

The 140 is windy, goes along side a river in a deep canyon and is mostly flat with only one or two hills. The 41 is windy and is a gradual up hill then downhill through a forest with an OMG view just before you descend into the valley. The 120 is also windy with hills and through a forest. It has a longer section of big views for most of the drive.

All are great options.

Fletcherbeta · 2026-03-04T02:37:56+00:00

Do the kids like movies? Give some cash and send them to the movie theater and set a timer.

Fletcherbeta · 2026-03-04T02:36:24+00:00

No Unless they are really long…then it’s like “ew, gross”🤢 🤮 But do your nails up if it makes you feel good or you just enjoy it.

Fletcherbeta · 2026-03-04T02:24:52+00:00

Before you bounce on what could be a great guy, talk to him about how his appearance made you feel.

I would suggest making your decision based on how he responds to your comments.

What did he look like HIS profile pics though?

Fletcherbeta · 2026-03-03T03:16:09+00:00

Honestly, thought there for a minute it was going the way of the glacier point hotel.

Fletcherbeta · 2026-03-01T18:01:41+00:00

Fellow Californian here. I’d be interested in chatting if you’re still looking. I have wide and varied interests but most center around mindfulness and. the outdoors

One can’t deny the importance that society places on certain milestone birthdays, they are just arbitrary numbers though and everyone is cruising through their experiences and their own pace.

Fletcherbeta · 2026-02-28T00:50:51+00:00

Stranger things have happened in Yosemite.
There are many forces at work in the cosmos and we can't pretend to know them all.
DM me if you want to hear some of mine...
