Before you go

These open questions need confirmation; Wayproof does not fill them with guesses.

Is the current published round-trip distance for Upper Yosemite Fall 7.2 or 7.4 miles?

The official hiking map publishes 7.2 miles while the NPS Yosemite Valley Trails page publishes 7.4 miles; both statements are preserved rather than silently selecting one.

Open question. Linked evidence does not resolve this gap.

No specific claim evidence is linked to this question.

Which reviewed NPS trail features form each Yosemite Valley route, variant, junction, and turnaround from its exact access point?

The official sources establish named routes, starts, objectives, variants, and published distances, but continuous feature-by-feature topology still requires a separate reviewed geometry pass; proximity is not a connection.
