Waiting for the Fire to be Put Out!

Monday, Sept 4 - Yosemite National Park
Kind of a slow day today. The road to Yosemite Valley is still closed, so I decided to drive out the Tioga Pass road to Tuolomne Meadows and see the north end of the park. In the picture to the left, you can see Half Dome off in the distance in the middle of the frame. Climbing that is the main objective for Yosemite.




Tenaya Lake (right and below) is a really pretty lake along the Tioga Pass road.



Tuolomne Meadows (below) is along the road near the end. Its a popular destination for hikers as there are a number of day hikes that originate from there to other area lakes and destinations. I ate breakfast instead of hiking.




Didn't do much the rest of the day. Still a bit frustrated to not be able to get into Yosemite Valley, I relaxed in camp most of the day reading a book.
