I had a free day and trucked it up to Yosemite to scramble around. I had a great day exploring Gunsight and it was comfortable enough to do solo. Are there any other 4th Class scrambles in Yosemite that are similar for another day? I'm a solid climber but don't want anything so vertical as to be in a "solo" situation for a prolonged period of time, would just like a relaxing full day, any suggestions?

Go scope out the approach for Via Aqua- but save it for a season when the waterfalls are going off.

Go up the bowling alley between Middle Cathedral Rock and Higher Cathedral Rock, then head out on the Catwalk.

I think there's a thread floating around here already for 4th class scrambles in the valley.

That 5.0 route up Sunnyside Bench to explore the base of Yosemite Falls might fill the bill me thinks. Just make sure you don't drop rocks on any climbers below. Lots of loose stuff up there.

Grizzley Peak route
Sierra Point (short)
HD death slabs
Washington Gully (Git Down)
Indian Creek (fresh rock avalanch)
Visit the base of Illouette falls.
Staircase falls trail (abandoned, very dangerous)

Wow thanks for all the input! I really appreciate it! I found the 4th class scrambles post, and if anyone is interested like me I found this writeup on SummitPost: http://www.summitpost.org/valley-scrambles/157844
