>>902071>>902107>>902120>>902162>confirmed for never walking more than a mile from a parking lotyosemite is LITERALLY the size of rhode island. you can go peak season and within a half hour never see another person for the entire day.
that being said, yeah, the valley floor around the roads and on the paved trails is an utter shitshow from june-august and yeah, you do need reservations 6 months in advance if you plan on camping then. but get there early, leave late, spend the time in between finding the places 3,499,950/3,500,000 people never go and enjoy your solitude.
