We highly recommend that guests stop at a grocery store on the way up the mountain because options are somewhat limited.

Recommended Grocery stores:

• Sonora (Safeway / Walmart / Save Mart)

• Twain Harte (local grocer)

• Modesto (Trader Joe’s / Costco / Save Mart, etc)

Here is what (should be) available once you arrive!

We recommend calling restaurants ahead of time to confirm hours, as some may adjust their hours depending on the season!
