Start of the hike at 0730 hours.
We look so fresh at the start.
Our destination: Half Dome.
Liberty Cap view on the John Muir trail (aka the easy trail).
"How the heck are we going to do that?" asked Katie anxiously.
"We will find out when we get there," said Joe.
Before the ascent. We look happy and ready to go.
We made it to the top--8836 feet!
Thank god we made it down. I compared the intensity on the cables to that of having a baby. It took a lot of courage and concentration to go up those things.
Holy crap, I can't believe we just did that. (There are people climbing in the pic).
The descent via the Mist Trail (aka the shorter way).
AKA, the hell trail because it was thousands of steps down, down, down without relenting. Challenging when you are on the 15th mile. The sights were amazing though.
Welcome home mom, why are you hobbling?
