Thanks for that info, DreadPirateRoberts! I've only been once but we had only the one day and we did a few hikes and not focused on one place. I didn't know you could go on
top of them. I saw this on Huell Howard. Oh, whatever his name is!
{I love the guys' show, it is on local t.v., he does CA spots}. But it sounds like it is unaccessable during a snow.
Oh, iSm, the history before the white man came. It really does sound like Paradise. It is hard to imagine. Yes, that history is very worth while. The naming of some of the local mountains {right, three brothers and others?}, the name 'Yosemite'. The little museum in the Valley doesn't do a lot of justice, but it is good that they acknowledge their primary presence in the valley.

So, seriously, the dates of Camp Swank begin the 30th? I've been trying to see if we can go one night.....the Hubster says I don't know what I am asking for.
Mousepod, was the Mist Trail open? Or did you guys just do it? When we went in March, it was closed but we ran into a couple coming down the John Muir trail and they said they'd done the MT but that the JMT was worse because of the snow. It was, really, I bummed everyone out by saying no more hiking in/on that type of snow on the side of a mountain! I'd bought snow show thingies
but they said there was no snow so I left them at home. Would have been perfect.
Oooh, wait, did you have snow while you were there? Or was it from the weekend before you went? I follow the webcam and saw some snow.....
