Al,

That is one of the most beautiful areas of the country - certainly not 
to be missed. You should do fine on Tioga Pass - somewhere in some 
Airstream archives is a photo of a caravan going down the pass - very 
spectacular.

My warning is for Highway 120 between Moccasin and Groveland. We 
pulled our 21" foot Globetrotter with a Suburban down that hill last 
summer and it was quite the white knuckler. The curves are sharp 
enough that big rigs would pause on the turns to let traffic pass so 
that they would have enough room to negotiate the hair pins. A better 
bet might be to head into Yosemite Valley via Highway 140 - the way the 
tour buses go - and then head up to the Crane Flat area and out over 
Tuolumne Meadows to Tioga. I know it's the long way around but better 
safe than sorry.
