While Yosemite never ceases to be a jaw-dropper, there is something particularly elegant about the region's granite domes and sheer rock faces when trimmed and accented with winter white. Yet winter access can be fairly limited due to that same snow cover.
No worries. One of the best (and fittest) ways to explore Yosemite in winter is on a pair of cross-country skis or snowshoes. If you need gear, you can rent it at Badger Pass. Follow the 14.5km (9-mile), fairly flat road leading from Badger Pass to Glacier Point, where you'll be rewarded (assuming the weather is clear) with a truly spectacular, bird's-eye-view of Yosemite Valley. If the snow has melted, then make it a hike to Glacier Point and check out the booming waterfalls from an unusual vantage point. Follow trails looping around the valley floor too. Relax in the evening back on the valley floor at the storied stone and timber Ahwanee Hotel .
