No dogs on this one.
Weather: Clear, low seventies.
Description: 8.6 mile strenuous loop up the Mist Trail to the top of Nevada Falls and down the John Muir Trail, but a rock slide on the John Muir caused a detour back down the Mist trail which shortened the hike to 7.4 miles for most of us.
Elevation: 4000 ft.at parking lot, 5900 ft at the top of Nevada Falls. We'll reach 6000 ft. on the John Muir Trail for a total elevation change of 2000 ft.
Dinner: Tailgate at the parking lot.
Participants: (26) Bobbie Ables-Smith, Kendra Bibbins, Tracy Crowley, Steve Fotheringham, Dennis, Jacob, Janae, Janie Gallagher & Gina, Josh, Glennes, Rachel & Sierra Golding, Barb Hayes, Debbie Gerhart, Jackie Lederle, Connie & Tom Metz, Don Mulcahy, Dan & Dora Robinson, Stefanie Rochow, Nina Shah, Patrick Wall, Nick & Becky Teberg.
Notes: The rock slide on the John Muir Trail between the Clark Point cut-off and the Mist Trail at the river had originally occurred very early in the morning. There was still movement when they decided to close the trail AFTER Stefanie had already gone through. I don't know if Tracy & Debbie were in the same situation.
Comment
Heading down south for a wedding on Saturday. Baby Elizabeth says, "I'll miss you all!" See you on the next hike.
Rachel: It's always good to see you and the entire Golding Fam!
Hey Steve Fotheringham!
Are you making that AWESOME red pepper dip?!? I'll bring extra crackers/chips for that great dip!
