Day previous to Half Dome hike - I was patiently waiting for my friend to join me near Curry Village. The sun was casting its last rays on the Half Dome and the mist was settling on the valley. People were taking evening strolls in the meadows. It was getting cold and kind of mystery feeling was creeping over. Me too decided to take a stroll in the meadows. This scene with the valley walls at the backdrop made feel humble ... so small and being protected by huge hands of nature.

Yosemite's Inspiration Point
Same trip as Half Dome hike. The view was marred by the forest fires, still the view was as amazing, and still leaving more for imagination on how good the view would be on a clear day.

Half Dome Experience
Half Dome, Yosemite: After a long time I felt I could just keep walking ! The 8.2mi hike to top was very scenic and even in the heat of July I felt I just can walk a lot. Nearly a break of one year since I did a strenuous hike. As I viewed from top, the scene was blurred by the forest fires by the forest management ... and I cursed them for spoiling my day!
