Wasn't me but my cousin has a cabin in Arnold and I can't wait to spend a week up there exploring these roads. Any favorites?

you guys will love monitor pass(89) its like 10 miles of med/high speed sweepers in great scenery(aspens)!

cherry lake road is a personal favorite as well, especially the 108 side(the road to cherry lake goes in and out from tuolumne city(sonora) and in/out from near yosemites entrance on highway 108...bring a back pack and a colapsable fishing pole

take hwy4 up and over the sierras, skip over monitor pass(89) to 395 south, stop in walker/antelope valley for lunch and gas, hit tioga pass thru yosemite(watch your speed ) or 120(sonora pass)back to jamestown where you can take parrots ferry road back over to highway 4 near murphy's and back up to arnold...i promise you wont be dissappointed! theres gas in dardanelle on 120 so you wont have issues with fuel....

probably doing this ride again next weekend, fun roads with good pavement and MANY twisties, a bonus is the incredible scenery!

Great roads up there but don't be fooled by "all roads are now open" when it's still April...

What a great time we had!

Damn, and I couldn't ride due to the heat being almost 100 degrees out. Went out for a 200 mile planned, and turned around and came back after 45 miles. That snow looks so cooooool.....
