Blessed with some of the highest quality granite in the Sierra Nevada, the area boasts over a thousand rock climbing routes, thousands of boulder problems, sweeping granite peaks, and wide open vistas. Tuolumne, with its alpine locale, are generally only accessible during the summer months, roughly June through October.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rest of the year, Tioga Pass Road, the main thoroughfare of the area, is closed due to snow. Constrained by the limited season, and shadowed by the fame of Yosemite Valley below it, fewer park visitors travel and climb in Tuolumne — but those of us who do, tend to fall head over heels for this place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the Authors:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRobin Hirsch has been working on an updated, comprehensive guidebook to the Tuolumne area since 2012. He’s been frequenting and climbing in Tuolumne since 2008, working in the park for first the concessionaire, then the National Park Service on many ecological restoration projects. On a walk through Tuolumne he can tell you about an obscure rock wall in the distance as well as the species and characteristics of the flora and fauna of whatever trail you’re on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThomas Bukowski joined the project in 2019. He’s been climbing in Tuolumne since 2013, and brings an invaluable background in print publishing and data management to the book, helping turn Robin’s hundreds of pages of notes and annotations into a cohesive, well-designed guidebook worthy of the majesty of this area. They started guiding for the Yosemite Mountaineering School in 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublished by Cibola Publishing House\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublication date: 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eRobin Hirsch with support from Thomas Bukowski\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eRegion: Tuolumne Meadows (California, USA)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLanguage: English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePages: 592\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e9798218175122\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cibola Publishing House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46016584679578,"sku":"9798218175122","price":82.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/7310\/1978\/files\/Tuolumne-Meadows-Climbing-A-Comprehensive-Guide__S_1.webp?v=1789486387","url":"https:\/\/verticallstore.com\/fr\/products\/tuolumne-meadows","provider":"Verti Call","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
