I agree. First though, I would have used my horn (gasp!) from a bit away to notify him that I was coming. He might have stepped out of the way. And, if not, then I would have just shouted as I passed.
That would have left Mr. Phone Guy being the sole dick in the matter. And, I wouldn't have attempted any risk to myself in the process. (Well, other than possibly getting punched in the face by all these people who apparently punch people in their faces for having bike horns/bells.) Plus, I'd rather not consciously do dickish things. I feel there's enough bad energy in the world already and I would like to not add to it as much as I can. But, that's just me. YMMV.
Love your Tuolomne Meadows photos. We might have to trek up there next summer. Ken and I have been talking about camping there for some time now.
