A great trip with a large group! Mandatory swim (or waist-deep wade) below LeConte boulder, found a hornet nest atop the boulder near the rap anchor. This is a beautiful and challenging hike, a must-do and worth repeating.
From Olmstead Point to Curry Village with Paul and friends, late September or October of 2002. Repeated from Tenaya Lake with the meetup, October 3, 2009.
My brother and I have made numerous trips into Tenaya Canyon. The Inner Gorge is fantastic and Tenaya Creek has some great swimming holes once you pass Hidden Falls.
