Um. that's exactly what I meant.

The Vernal Falls/ Nevada Falls Loop is closed. Best.Trail.Ever. But we can go as far as the base of Vernal or maybe up the "Mist" portion a ways. It is stunning and we will enjoy at least a portion of this fabulous trail.

The other stunning trail is off the Glacier Point Road, which I'm assuming is closed (usually is), and that's likely why the 4-mile trail is listed as closed. But the beauty, stunner trail is the Taft Point / Sentinel Dome Loop. OMG, fantasticness. OMG, buried under snow this time of year, heheh.


BUT ... we should have the patented Rivendell Effect in the Valley, with the dozens of tiny waterfalls that only appear for a fraction of the year. A rare treat, ours for the taking.



Sigh, it's just that I don't get to Yosemite much anymore. And the last time I was there was also this time of year, just before the high trails opened that are so unbeliveably rewarding.

Ah well.


Not like we won't be having a freaking fantabulous time!!!
