Yosemite 2007 June 6 - Glacier Point

Today we drove up to Glacier Point, a great spot to see the valley from up above and all the granite that surrounds it. When you see half dome, think of the people that hiked up to the top - a 17 mile round trip.








(Here you can see Upper & Lower Yosemite Falls. We hiked the Upper Fall.)

Bob, John & Jenny hiked part of the Panorama Trail from Glacier Point.














On the drive back to the campground, I spotted a bear and grabbed the video camera only to find out it was at the end of the tape. I raced to the back of the van and unwrapped a new tape and as soon as I was getting in position for my shoot, the bear turned around and ran out of view.




There was a prescribed burn by our campground. The winds were favorable and the smoke didn't bother us.
