Yosemite snow in June
Monday, June 26, 2006
I just came back to civilization. Hiking from the North side of Yosemite to the South side in 3 feet of snow is no good. Thankfully, we only got lost 3 times, and the snow eventually cleared up when we got to the downhill part. 3 days in the wilderness can do things to you. For me, it gave me blisters on my feet and sore legs. My sanity was almost lost the first night though.
This time, my pack only weighed about 50 lbs. If you carry a pack for 3 days, it almost becomes a part of you. Experiencing the difference in gravity when you remove it, is strange for a few minutes.
The plus side was, there were sights that NO ONE will ever understand unless they walked the steps we did those 3 days... so I will not try to explain them.
I am glad I'm home though. I will never go back.
