Panoramic View from atop Yosemite's Iconic Half Dome during a rare January ascent. Snow is missing from the landscape in an uncharacteristically dry beginning of winter.

  • I definitely knew I was not the first to make it up Half Dome for the year. It was "my" first ascent of the year. I was at Mt. Whitney on January 1st. Unlike conditions at Whitney, the Half Dome trail is 100% clear.

  • Beautiful up on top! I subbed!

  • Gosh, what a beautiful view. This makes me miss Yosemite.

  • Good job! But you weren't the first ascent of the year. Look at trip reports on Supertopo. Micronut made the first ascent on 1/1/2012.

  • yexplore, I am curious... Did you have to cross any ice or snow on the way up to Half Dome? Or was the trail 100% dry 100% of the way?

    Thanks!

    P.S. for the BayAreaHiker: The cables are ALWAYS there, lying on the granite, but not "UP" on the posts that they install in the spring.

  • were the cables up,,?
