Yosemite is a pita anyway...
There's so much other stuff around it that provides much less stress like Sequoia NP to the south.
Yosemite valley is OK for a day trip or backpacking, but I wouldn't plan to stay in the valley.
The frigging crowds during the tourist season are tremendous and ruins the experience.
The DW and I have tent camped and hiked all over Yosemite, heck we even spent a nite in the Ahwahnee.
It's a fantastic place it's just so dang busy now...plus don't forget the Rim fire trashed a lot of the surrounding area.
We are planning to go in May, before the crowds arrive.
