Half Dome

lol my legs killed and I was tired but as soon as I got high enough to feel the sprinkles of the waterfall on my face…It was so worth it. It was GORGEOUS and so worth the pain!

A sign about half wayup in the Merced River reads: “If you fall, you will die.” Epic!

I cried with wonder. One of those places that confirm that god is not only compassionate but an amazing artist!

last year june 4th me and a few friends hicked up halp dome 18 mile round trip 4000 ft evelavation change we did it in one day . i loved it, i hated it .it was the hardest thing i have ever done but the most amazing at the same time i would say do it. were going back again this year but in 3 days not one….lol

I ran up from the valley floor one morning, climbed the stair thingy peaked out and jammed back down to the bottom. I started at midnight and after spending some good time at the top came back to the car in early afternoon. Yosemite is a trying place, big hikes, big walls and big challenges. A surprisingly large number of people go to the top of Half Dome.

Awhile back I climbed the Nose and wanted to climb Half Dome as a training climb but couldn’t find anyone to do it with; so i ended up soloing the Leaning Tower instead. It’s great to be on top of Half Dome when climbers top out and Yosemite never disappoints.
