Great shots. I remember the first time we went there and got a copy of the Yosemite Times, or whatever the local paper is called. Eight people had died in the park that weekend!

The worst one was on half-dome where some hikers were caught in a thunderstorm and one was hit by lightning, lost his motor-control and staggered off the cliff.

And, as you come in to the park, you see these little colorful dots on the rock walls. They are climbers with their sleeping platforms. You would think there would be armed sadists forcing them to go up, but no, they did this voluntarily
