yep, time of year is a biggy.
also, are you wanting hookups or is dry camping fine?
as far as route, I40 to highway 58 to Bakersfield. then take 99 north to 140.
leave out of 120 back to 99 north. from there, you have a number of choices to the Redwoods.
Replace 99 North to 140 witeh 99 North to 41 North and you be in good shape. 41 is the South interance to Yosemite, very easy road too. THe I agree with leaving via 120 and heading west to 101 north for the redwoods.
Definitely agree. Do not stay on Hwy 99 to Hwy 140. Take Hwy 41 off of Hwy 99 in Fresno, and it will save you many miles. Hwy 41 is a freeway all the way thru Fresno and to the north side. Afterwards it is a very good two lane hwy all the way into Yosemite Park. Be sure to fuel up in Oakhurst because there is no fuel in Yosemite Valley.
