Down in Yosemite Valley...

These are from the "Swinging Bridge". Absolutely breathtaking scenery. The water in the river is crystal clear.

The bridge didn't "swing", but the people moving across made it hard to take a sharp picture. I wish we had more time and the right stuff with us to spend a few days hiking the area.

This is on my "must go back to" list for sure.

More from the bridge...

Lower Yosemite Falls starts to appear from the clouds in the last pic.

I also wish I had my tripod and had time to stalk the best light. We just took pictures as we came to stuff. Also wished I'd figured this camera out more before I left (hand-me-down 6 megapixel 1st-gen Canon 6 dslr 10D)

Guess I gotta go back:grinpimp:

What an awesome trip! Thanks for sharing the stories and pictures. Too bad we don't live closer to that part of the country!
 
We are approaching scenic overload for the day at this point. We weigh our options. Because it is raining on & off, we've already had our share of camping (we aren't in the mood for primitive camping and the campgrounds are packed in like sardines), and we aren't equipped to park the truck and go hiking for a day or two, we decide that it's not worth spending the night here.

We are headed toward Death Valley next. We have a two hour drive over the mountain back the way we came. We figure if we leave now, we can get close enough tonight so that we can make it through Death Valley tomorrow.

So we head back, try not to fly out of control on the way back down Tioga Pass, and get back on 395.

We land for the night in Bishop, CA. This was a cool little town. It is in a flat valley between two mountain ranges. We take a guess at a motel and get checked in.
