The Face

A simple hike with a few older guys created this opportunity. Our “Old Guys Hiking group” headed up Kaiser An old one, from the late 1980’s, and a reflection of days gone by. A 4x5 film image from a 50 year old Graflex camera. This image is actually a totally different view of Half Dome, but from the north side looking straight at the face. A long day hike out to North Dome, to get this perspective, before moving on to Yosemite Falls, and finally descending into the valley from above. On this trip we observed the power of God up close, as we experienced a lightening strike that was way too close for comfort. The explosion of granite, and rumbling aftershock was incredible, as we watched the rubble drift off the edge of El Capitan. Wow!
