Glacier Point, Yosemite National Park

August 18, 2015 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F

Our first views of Half Dome from Glacier Point. Intimidating?!?! Not for our hearty hikers!

Note to future Yosemite explorers: Taking the Glacier shuttle bus from the Badger Ski Area is a nightmare! They only came every 60 minutes so an hour and a half side trip took us 3.5 hours!!! Then we get up to Glacier Point and there are RV's there & extra parking spots for RV's when they said it was full. With a toddler, the waiting was rough! Worth the views in the end so all good.

In the last shot of the valley you can see the Awhanee Hotel where Grampy Carpenter used to work in college.Read more
