Cook's Meadow

Easbound on Southside Drive,take the first left after you get a clear view of Yosemite Falls (there’s a stop sign). The Sentinel Bridge (classic Half Dome reflections) parking area is on your left, and the paved trail skirting Cook's Meadow’s south side is right in front of you as you view Yosemite Falls. Parking anywhere along the road that travels between Yosemite Village and Yosemite Lodge gives access to the meadow’s north side.
