this is wen yuhh didnt need a permit to climb the half dome!!!

I would never go there on a weekend or holiday, the trail is full of weekend warriors, just horrible. We went on a tuesday morning and practically had the trail to ourselves.
-
Jeez... the crowd is more dangerous than the ascent itself. If one heavy person falls, they might take a whole crowd with them.

Like this if you want a slide down!

I went on the out side of the cables. It is A LOT faster. It takes like 30 minutes to move a foot.

just got back from climbing Eiger, blindfolded. Yosemite is plenty big. If you hike back you can get away from tourists if you want..

Thanks for the tip. You can see this upright now by substituting (portrait mode) for (sideways) in the title.

But if you're watching on a tablet, choose this view and turn the tablet 90 degrees to watch it full screen. Just don't tilt it too much, or your device will respond by adding bars...

damn tourists. I wonder if thats what john muir had imagined for yosemite?

While Muir did indeed describe the tourist rush in Yosemite as "an ungovernable avalanche... destructive to all real enjoyment", he also proclaimed it, in the same article (for the San Francisco Daily evening bulletin), "one of the most hopeful and significant signs of the times...", finding it infinitely more preferable than leaving the state's forests to the sheepmen and lumber companies.

this was at the height of the season: midsummer, midday, and on a weekend. It wasn't half as crowded just an hour before.
