Travel Forum / Destinations / USA and Canada / June 2006Yosemite/Death Valley/Sequoia in November
In November 2007 I will have a trip to SF for a conference. I'm thinking of taking the family and visiting any or all of the areas--Yosemite, Sequoias, Death Valley. What will mid/late November be like? I assume parts of Yosemite may already be closed. What about the other parks? Will it be too cool to really enjoy any of this?

We held a conference in or near Yosemite for someting like 4 or 5 years in early Nov. until we recently switched. T-Meadows and Glacier point will be closed usually. Kings Canyon road will usually be closed. You have to be prepared for snow and rain. I've used that time of year to recoup from things like knee surgery or dental work. Probably the fewest tourists excepting Thanksgiving. > In November 2007 I will have a trip to SF for a conference.

Work on the assumption that you wont be able to get to Death Valley over the Tioga Pass as its almost certain to be closed. That said it will certainly be cold in Yosemite and Sequoia but the absence of the summer crowds makes up for it and its the ideal time of year of DV. Keith > What will mid/late November be like? FYI, if you go to the Yahoo weather site and look up a city (or park), and then click the "Records and Averages" link on that page, you'll find typical weather for any month. For example, for Death Valley it says the average high in November is 76 F; the average low is 47; great weather for a visit. http://weather.yahoo.com Jim |
