Hike - Lembert Dome & Dog Lake
Avoid the crowds at Tioga road with this beautiful and peaceful hike to two wonderful places. Reach the top of Lembert Dome and enjoy the idyllic dog lake. Takes up to 4h. Further on nice drive over Tioga road past the Tuolumne Meadows and Tenaya Lake, but it can be quite crowded,with cars parked all the way alongside the road.
15:48 - 197.3 км / 2 часа 51 минута - 18:40
День 5
Visit Yosemite National Park - Yosemite Valley
Standard, simple, but affordable motel. The motels closer to Yosemite (e.g.: Mariposa) are far more expensive. Just a good place to sleep, because there's nothing to see in Merced. Lies next to a busy highway.

Yosemite Valley Visitor Center
Visit at Yosemite Valley. Get there in time to find a parking spot and move on with the shuttle service. Before 10:30am would be a good time to arrive. We found it not as impressive as our passage of Tioga Road. Very crowded place.

7:00 - 111.6 км / час 31 минута - 8:32
BART - South San Francisco Station: Park your car in the covered parking lot, pay the $3.00 ticket inside and take the BART to Powell Street.
