3xEach trip while hanging out or driving through Tuolumne Meadows mostly to stretch the legs. Up the southeast slope from the parking area each time.

start of a nice dayI went to the Soda Springs area before this hike and saw a deer being reflected perfectly in some water. I then followed the short trail to Lembert Dome where there were great views to be had. After I took the short walk to Dog Lake, which I liked as well.

I'll See you laterThe cougar might have got away, but the rest of the views from the top were fantastic, especially cathedral at dusk.

East SlopeDid this one after dinner. Great views all around. Dana looked great with alpine glow. Almost got attacked by a cougar on top. Wish that would have worked out.

South SlopeThis scramble was everything I hoped for. I just wish it was 3x longer!

A Very Cool PlaceWe got to hike Lembert Dome in daytime, and the ranger showed us the stars there at night. A very cool place.

Northwest Books (5.6, 2 pitches)Irene+ and I did this one on a weekend trip to Tuolumne, soon after I arrived in Fresno. Some committing moves, felt a bit hard for 5.6. Great summit with awesome views of the Meadows and an easy descent. We did some routes at the Bunny Slopes the same day.
