He even identified a stone in a ring we already owned but couldn't figure out what it was. There are options for every budget. Don't miss Buddahs Breezeway, I found a lovely Mermaid there that I had to take home. While you're visiting Yosemite, spend some cash at local businesses like this one. I'm certainly glad that I did.

I grew up at Bass Lake in the early '90s, right as mountain biking was taking off. I still come…read moreback every summer, and I'm grateful a shop like Pedal Forward is here. Serving locals and helping visitors find the good stuff. Now that I live in Seattle, I've love watching all their YouTube trail videos. They've filmed all the classic trails, even some new ones like 'Blind Squirrel,' and make planning rides easy. Over July 4th, I rented a Specialized Turbo Levo. They did a professional fit adjustment, free of charge, and the staff pointed me to new trail improvements I would've missed, even as a former local. Thirty years on, the sport keeps evolving. Shops like Pedal Forward are a big reason why. Keep it up, brothers.

Pedal Forward is absolutely legit. Great service, tons of inventory, super friendly to…read moreout-of-towners. What really sets them apart though is they actually give back - they're heavily involved with trail stewardship days and support the Yosemite South Gate Trail Cooperative with both time and money. If you're in town looking to ride, stop by. You won't regret it.

The Cat's Meow, Oakhurst: 22 Mar 2021…read more I stopped at a local craft store. Here, I was greeted by the managers of the store. We were told that two cats walked in one day and adopted the owners. The store was named before the cats walked in and made it their home. Doodle-bug (black cat) and Quill (gray cat) comes running to the door to greet customers and walks them around the store. These are friendly, well-behaved kitties - with soft meows and tender paws. Quill jumped on my back when I bent down to pat Doodle-bug. They have quite a good selection of craft - plus, they offer classes. The items are well organized - and the shelves pretty well stocked up. The owners are okay but the stars of the store are the kitties. "5 stars for the kitties"
