I loved the stream of self-reflection throughout the trip. Beginning on day two’s recognition that your choices to slow down on day one really made the trip worth it. And Cloud’s Rest views were amazing - way better than last time. You even caught a few images of Mt. Clark, or as I call it Potato Chip Mountain, which has long been my icon of really getting into the back country hiking. I loved all of the beautiful views as it reminded me of just how beautiful Yosemite.

Your stream of reflection was beautiful. I was rooting for you from the start and you pulled through just as I had knew you would! By the way, the Valley also has Peet’s Coffee in Curry Village! All that’s missing is a 7-11! (kidding!) Loving your videos! Keep on, keepin’ on! ✌🏼

Thank you for watching! Great to hear there are other coffee options. It’s a must while traveling! ;)

@ You’re so welcome! All the employees at either Starbucks or Peet’s are employed by the concessions and not by the coffee company, for what it’s worth 🙂

I’m just about half way through the video. When I saw you were going up the Upper Yosemite Falls trail, the agony of defeat hit me. I’ve tried that trail twice. The first time included my mother who was not able to do a trail like this. The second time I learned and just took my fittest friend. We made good progress until the last big set of switchbacks, where there had been a substantial rockslide. The trail was closed and we quickly realized it was also way too dangerous to try. This, two tries and two fails! So glad you made it up and over to North Dome. If you have not done it before, you need to take the Half Dome trail and look over the edge.

Going up Yosemite falls was TOUGH! it was so hot and steep, getting to the falls was such a relief! I can totally understand why this trail isn't for everyone!

This was incredible! Every time I have gone to Yosemite, it has been a mess so I had kind of wrote it off in my mind; just not meant to be. Now? Wow! It is definitely back on the list of must do places! Thanks for a great share!

It's defiantly still a mess! lol but I think if you can get into the back country its pretty magical! Thanks for watching!

@@trailandtravel What mapping tools do you use to plan and what are some recommended sources for research on a backpack destination? Customizing a route based on one’s skill/comfort level? Thanks!

A most beautiful hike and narration. :) Is there a map, that you can direct me to, that goes from Mirror Lake, Snow creek, to Sunrise and Cloud's Rest, or that what you took?

My maiden name is Watkins. This is neat to see. Also, just curious are you ever nervous about any wildlife you might encounter?

@trailandtravel Ай бұрын

I have never had any negative or scary experiences with wildlife. For the most part they just keep to themselves. I have had times where I was really nervous but nothing ever happened!
