White Wolf (T9) Details
Legend has it that around 1850, John Meyer, a cattleman, was leading a posse to recover horses stolen by a tribe of Native Americans and came to this meadow. At the time, it was an encampment for the tribe whose chief was White Wolf. Meyer named this meadow in the chief's honor. The trailhead for Lukens Lake is also located off this road. If you're wondering if there are wolves in Yosemite, they have not been seen in over 150 years. You are very likely to see some mountain coyotes, however. Roadside marker: T9
