Top Ice Climbing in USA

I suggest getting a National Park pass if you're visiting multiple parks. It saves money and you get access to a ton of unique places, not just Yosemite!

Check out the ranger-led programs! They’re often free and super informative. I found out so much about the park's geology that made my visit even better.

If you're planning to take photos, bring a good camera or your phone with a waterproof case. The scenery is stunning, and you don't want to miss capturing those moments.

I recommend getting there by 9 AM to beat the crowds. It was beautiful and quiet in the morning, plus the lighting for photos is way better!

I think it's worth packing a lunch. The snack bar there is decent but overpriced, and sitting on the glacier with a sandwich is cool for sure!

If you're planning to rent gear for ice climbing do it ahead of time online. I found it cheaper and more convenient than renting onsite where they seemed a bit short on sizes!
