A
Life-Changing Experience in Yosemite National Park
August 12th - 2nd annual Half Dome
hike/climb
17-mile round trip -
4880 feet vertical climb
Up at 4:30.
Leave campsite by 5. On the trailhead by 6:30. Hang out at top ~2 hours. Back by
sunset
Buy a t-shirt that
says I MADE IT TO THE
TOP, & eat like horse at
all-u-can-eat salad bar
Next day: Eat Advil like
candy & try to walk w/out bending legs much
Say, ooh &
aah a lot
After you recuperate, you feel incredibly strong, almost invincible.
Half Dome rocks! Can
hardly sleep night before

for an Intro to the Yosemite vacation
It's true that I was last
to the top,
but only cuz I wanted to make sure everyone first made it up safely =)

Does
not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?
She stands in the top of high places ..
