Half Dome and Clouds Rest

[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]

Seen from Glacier Point. On a different day in a different year, some friends and I hiked from Toulumne Meadows on the John Muir Trai, took a detour over Clouds Rest (seen here on the left) and then climbed Half Dome. It was a 30 mile day, that is the most I have ever hiked in one day, and maybe ever will. This photo has lots of memories for me.

	RayMondo	Me too
	Voted 10/10	A sight also familiar to me, and I never wanted to leave this place, and made it 3 times. The Half Dome hike is a tough yet unforgettable trip.

	Hasn't voted	just made my third trip to the top a couple weeks ago. We went from Toulumne Meadows to Clouds Rest, to Half Dome and on to the Valley, great trip but it takes me a while to recover from a 30 mile day.

	Voted 10/10	It got at my knees on the way down. Though nowadays I don't any issues with them. I think I'm becoming younger, because I think way!
