Wow, the valley is nice and green right now! I love that 2nd one.

How long is that hike and how difficult? I've always wanted to do that one...

~9 hrs for me, lugging 3 liters of water, snacks and dslr in 90degree heat.
~10 miles round trip of 90% steps. one of the harder hikes in yosemite due to the constant uphill or downhill.

Stunning image - I hope it is not a vertical drop from where you are lying.

#2 is very nice. I will be there in June for the first time and looking forward to the trip and capturing some equally nice images.


Best, Bruce

I like the shot of the hiker relaxing.
A great message.
