    Who knows! I didn't see but one other film shooter for 5 days in the park starting Christmas day and she was in camp 4. She had a Hassy with her. only saw the 4x5 on the way out. I brought the whole arsenal with me and was all over. You could not miss the 14x17 and the other smaller ones when I set up.

    Hey Jim! Great to hear that you had a good Yosemite trip! Jealous!

    In my younger and somewhat foolisher days, a friend and I played frisbee on Lower Cathedral Lake wearing nothing but our shoes. The frisbee would float forever through the thin air. Wonderful experience. Breaking through had a high, very high probability of death, of course.

    It was a May in the late 1970's. Good thick ice, snow all around. Winter had extended into Spring that year, and that ice was damn solid except by the outlet where we did not get near. I had post-holed the whole way to the Upper Lake while my much lighter friend stayed on top of the snow. Camped along the Lower Lake and hiked out by following the outlet down the mountain. We worked our way over to the Tioga Pass Road and hitch-hiked back to my car up in the Meadow.

    So we were perfectly safe. I hope my kids don't do something stupid like that!

    PS...but part of me hopes that they will...

    That guy who wants $170 view outfit would do well to stand around the Lake for a free one.

    Lovely, Robert! Just lovely! Mt. Conness is just glowing in the first one, and I really like the third one. Sweet!

    Nice work Robert! I agree with Preston, the light on Conness is like a gem in the distance. I'd love to get up there. I think the record will have been broken for the closing date of the Tioga road.
