• 9/7 Yosemite day 2

    July 9 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    Slower start this morning, checked out the shops and sat in the shade while we waited for Luke and Laney. Went for a nice swim in the Merced River and admired the view of Cathedral Rocks on one side and El Capitan on the other. Sadly no one was climbing the Dawn Wall but it was very cool comparing the picture of the route, could almost picture Alex Honald free solo-ing it 😵 Played some games and enjoyed some music courtesy of the Wedde boys, then went for a walk to the base of El Capitan, very cool looking up the sheer granite face. Had a little climb on the first couple of holds of one of the routes, now we can officially say we have climbed on El Capitan 😉Read more
