A beautiful view of Half Dome in Yosemite National Park. I want to make it to the top!
The start. Tara, Ryan, Collette, Clay, Denise, and me - at 6:30am. We were back to camp at 6:30pm.
The Mist Trail, it was beautiful, a bit damp and a bit cold. There was a tremendous amount of water on all of the falls.
Looking toward the cables. Ok, my anxiety was out of control at this moment. What am I doing here??
Cables
Cables
Cables..they keep getting closer and looking more insane.
The Half Dome Marmot - he/she reminded us of Claire. Is it the look in the eyes?
Me & Ryan, playing around acting like we're oblivious to the fact that we're essentially on the edge of the world!
Ryan & Tara at the top, they are fit, confident, fearless, and hecka strong!
A moment to enjoy the view before we head back for the other 6 hours of the hike.
Family can gather and enjoy time with each other almost anywhere!
This hike was amazing, beautiful, scary, thrilling, painful, breathtaking, frightening, hard, and wonderful. It was such a quick trip that I could almost think that I imagined the whole thing. That is IF I didn't hurt so bad. What a day. I am so impressed with the fitness of my kids! It was a once in a lifetime experience for me and I am so glad I MADE IT TO THE TOP!
