For those of you who are following this disjointed travel log, all I can say is thanks for waiting. I have been a little distracted and as you noticed, have not been keeping up with my blog.
I will add a few more pictures from my fall drive which went up through the eastern Sierras / into Nevada (to visit my brother) / over to Great Basin N. P (still in Nevada on the east side) and then down to Zion N. P. for some hiking.
This is Saddleback Lake (elevation 10,066`) which is just off the east road into Yosemite N. P. I decided to camp here one night and hike around the lake (the big one) - this is taken from the far end of the lake. The smaller lake at the left is Hummingbird Lake.
Above is a wierd shot I noticed while standing on a sloping granite rock which is why it is so distored. Whatever!
The next day I took a hike (in Yosemite) starting at Tenaya Lake ( elev. 8,150`) up to Sunrise Lakes (elev. 9,427` pictured here). It was about a 10 mile round trip and the day was perfect.
This hike started at Virginia Lake (just north of Mono Lake and yes we are still in California). My starting point is below just out of sight and I am looking east and my trail (seen on the left) leading up to this overlook.
This is Blue Lake which is the last lake I passed on my way back down.
I could not resist this shot of a large rock that someone had painted up Lundy Canyon- it is about 7` tall.
This is a shed in the RV park in Lee Vining where I stayed before heading into Nevada. I took this one is for Mary to give her ideas for "yard art".
That enough for now.......
