All I can say is if you go into the valley for a hike or whatever, start really fucking early.
I started the Nevada Fall hike at 7am almost completely alone save for about 6-8 people I passed along the way. I came back down and must have passed at least 400 people going up who don't realize that you shouldn't stand in the middle of the trail in large groups.
If glacier point road was open then, I would have done those hikes, so check that out.
