May Lake. Elevation 9,270 feet.
So I did a search and Viva has lots of threads about Yosemite (I’ll link them here), almost enough for its own folder but in lieu of that I’ve started this thread because I wasn’t sure which thread to post these recent pics in.

Nice thread, Hoovs, I was there last weekend too. I like ending backpack trips with a quick overnight (free) trip through Yosemite. I usually hike out of whatever East side trail (this year it was 6 days in Colorado and then 2 in the Palisades out of Big Pine), then drive up Tioga and after 8pm they stop collecting a fee (and they usually wave me through on my way out hwy 140 or 120).
Cathedral Peak sunrise (while waiting for the cafe to open at Tuolumne Meadows).:
I was considering hike/climbing up Lembert dome, but the weather was funky, so I decided to drop down a few thousand feet to the valley and get up close and personal with big bad EL Cap:
This is a really short hike from the car... I highly recommend it.

Walstib, both times I've done
Walstib, both times I've done it we camped up at those campgrounds near the half dome trail and got on the cables early (just after sunrise) and started back down before the crowds could even make it up from the Valley.
There were a lot more people the first time mainly I think because it was on the weekend and before the permit system, and people falling and knocking me off the cables was my biggest worry, so I actually clipped into the cable with a sling and oversized locking 'biner.
All these shots were taken on our way back down the cables and are from 2010 trip from Tuolumne down to the dome and back via Cloud's Res (wilderness permit included half dome permit).
Looking at the down climb and seeing the cables 'drop' out of view freaks out a ton of people.
My friend Matt goes over the edge:

looking back up after finishing the descent:

While, I'm not a camper, I do have a few Boy Scout Merit Badges.
The last one was in the autumn of 1980 for waiting on line outside in New York City to see the Grateful Dead at Radio City Music Hall the following month...
Some one gave me a ticket to see Canadian Survivalist / Musician Less Stroud this Friday.
Part of his merchandising offering is Survivalist stuff.
He sells knives. Someone stole my knife as a package deal, when they were stealing my weed last week.
I'm looking to replace that Swiss Army Knife; I've had it for 30 years

Hoov, Hall, others...
planning a family weekend in mid-May before the summer crush begins. Any thoughts on car campsites? Haven't spent enough time in Tuolomne so leaning there but I know sites aren't usually open in May. Should I just throw $$ at Tenaya and drive in for the day?
Again, two tweens and my wife... lucky to have 72 hrs in area.
Gracias...

Hogdon Meadows, Crane Flats,
Hogdon Meadows, Crane Flats, and White Wolf are all kind of in between the Valley and Tuolomne Meadows. They could be open by May but you won’t know until closer till then. I’d suggest making a reservation in the Valley for now and checking on other locations closer to the date. Make sure not to cancel that first reservation until the second one is confirmed not just because you saw availability. Also, shit will change minute to minute when people cancel. Sometimes you need to just be patient and refresh your browser until something pops up.

Not sure. There's gun toting rednecks all over the San Joaquin Valley. If I had to guess I'd say Chowchilla.
