About twenty miles deep into the backcountry, not long after climbing this ridge, then another steeper one behind it, my Dad looked around at the breathtaking granite landscape and said, "Doesn't get much better than this. This is some world class hiking right here."
Enjoying some nice sunset lighting on a small lake after another day of amazing hiking in Yosemite.
Another spectacular view of the Yosemite back country lakes that we backpacked to on our 2017 trip.
