Yosemite in the Spring
by Christine
This past weekend, I went on a road trip to Yosemite with a group of friends–
Merel, Chen, Grace and
Vivek. Originally, we planned on backpacking, but the weather was too cold, 30-40 degrees
Fahrenheit. In the end, we rented a cozy canvas tent cabin in Curry Village for the whole group, and took a long day hike of over eight miles to the highest waterfall in Yosemite, Yosemite Falls, where we hiked over two thousand feet in elevation. Here is the
panorama of the view from the top:
Believe it or not, we hit snow at the very top of the waterfalls, even in early May.
The next day, we took a day hike to Mirror Lake and Tenaya Creek from Yosemite Valley, which was equally beautiful with spring wildflowers.
This loop was an easy one which took just 4 hours. We passed a
beautiful lake, creeks, and thick forests.
