	Hasn't voted	If you drew a square on the ground the same size as this rock and stood there in it it would be no big deal. But standing on that rock with big air around was as Little Joe LeConte once said "a little ticklish"!

	Voted 10/10	If "Little Joe Cartwight" were alive today, he'd remark how much this resembles Bonanza's 6th season episode entitled "Between Heaven and Earth." It was the one where Little Joe was chasing after a cougar. Merry Christmas to you, Windsor!

Where?

Voted 10/10

Where exactly is this formation? At glacier point somewhere?

	Noondueler	Re: Where?
	Hasn't voted	This is on Illilouette Ridge about 2 miles south of Glacier Point and about 3/4 mile southeast of the parking lot for Taft Point and Sentinel Dome. The views rival Glacier Point and nobody around. It's a thousand ft higher (8,200') and above Illilouette Falls I've been there a few times. It's like a well kept secret. It's real easy to get to. I'm gonna put up a M&R on it soon.

	Voted 10/10	Cool- I see the general area now. Poo to all those folks who say SP doesn't have good info on it. Look forward to your page and expect one day I'll be signing the summit log.

It's one of those photos that makes your heart start beating faster just by looking at it!

	Hasn't voted	Thanks g. I don't doubt my heart was beating faster standing there while my friend took the shot. Your profile pic is totally unique and outstanding.

	Voted 10/10	Thanks! It definitely raised my pulse a bit to slide out on that perch! The rock itself was not comfortably thick, but it was solid and cantilevered. Plus we have seen it used for others backdrop so I knew it would hold up.

How....

Voted 10/10

did I miss this picture when you posted it last July? What a great shot! Someday I am going to get one like this, just once in my hikes.

Yes, it would def raise my pulse too but what a great picture for your wall!

	Hasn't voted	Thanks Kathy. Jay and I were up on Illilouette Ridge. I found a rock outcrop about 30ft. high on the edge of the ridge. Jay took a pic of me with his Canon 5D after a steep move. You can see my Xsi on the rock below.

Ahh, Yosemite

Voted 10/10

Superb viewpoint. And still the most memorable place I've been to. I expected it would be, but it was infinitely greater.

	Noondueler	Re: Ahh, Yosemite
	Hasn't voted	Thanks Ray. We were hiking on the ridge and I came apon this small rock tower, scrambled up and my friend took the shot.
