It really was awesome!. i did Half Dome a few years ago and it is a more fun climb. But
the views from clouds rest were just amazing! seeing Half Dome from this perspective gives it an entirely different feel. also This Photo was taken just a few steps away, and there was alot more. the glaciers best artists were at work here!

Your photos of the Olympic Mtns. are off the wall too? i never knew there was such beauty there and will be planning a visit some time in the future.

Half Dome never fails to be so emotive. So far, I made the top of the Dome, but this a view that I must see for real.

Also a great perspective on the U-shaped Valley caused by former glaciation.
