California 2006

This year we only had time for 3 weeks of climbing and walking in the High Sierra, mostly in and around Tuolumne Meadows. This is the first time we were back since hiking through T Meadows in 1998 on the Pacific Crest Trail. The sky was just as blue, the granite as perfect and white as we remembered!
