    Boy, you guys really did the whole Yosemite thing, hitting so many great spots! I grew up car camping in Yosemite and as an adult I never get tired of it. Can't wait to see if you snag a Half Dome permit!

    Just to be able to see this country again from your videos means the world! Thank you so much.

    It's always good to take a vacation in the middle of your "working vacation".

    That red thing..."much bigger..." is called a Snowplant. Unique in that it has zero chlorophyll, but rather gets it's nutrients from mycorrhizal fungus that grows in conjunction with tree roots. Thanks for the mini tour of Yosemite. Hoping you snag a Halfdome permit. I think my best ever dayhike, 2x's. Looks like you guys are having a great time and thanks for some cold plunges!

    Get this, I did that hike from Olmstead Point to the valley roughly 49 years ago. 😂. I remember those switchbacks! Used to camp every year at Tenaya Lake until they closed the campground. ☹️. Awesome side trip for you!

    Great day @ river beach! Even w/ the crowds, I enjoy a few hours in the valley floor.
    2016: my PCT side trip: Tuolumne Meadows >Clouds Rest> overnight > up/dn Half Dome > valley > bus back up to PCT 👏👍

    Glad you made it to Yosemite Valley! FYI at 5:51 that's Illilouette Falls. Nevada Fall is not visible from Tenaya Canyon (it's behind Half Dome).

    Been following your PCT hike. Nice to see Yosemite valley. In fact I am one of those that have climbed El. Capital. I last climbed it in 1982.

    @ 4:43 I believe that's lichen, rather than moss 🙂

    Missed you at blue lake rd but your mileage is why we pick that spot so 55 plushikers received trail magic their so when you catch up to them tell them they owe you the Hoovers

      We missed you guys by 2 hours!! We showed up at 5 and I think you guys left around 3:30ish 😭
      Thank you for doing trail magic for all of our friends 🫶🏼♥️

    I don't get how PCTers can motivate past Tahoe. Don't you want to just say screw this, and return to stay local between Sonora and Cottonwood?
    Maybe it's growing up in Calif, developing a career here, and being able to drive 4-6 hrs on a whim to experience this type of day literally whenever you want that creates this POV.
    Dan, check out the Steve Beck book on fishing Yosemite/E Sierra. He's says to the effect you could spend your entire life exploring the range and still not get to every lake.

      We're going to Mammoth in just a few weeks. Can't wait - this vid really brings it home.
      Watching your vid, I was thinking "hike the Merced trail, get on the SHR, get back to Tully, revisit Virgina/Purple, exit Duck."
      Cruise into Mammoth, get a seasonal job/place to stay, and spend the summer doing a deep dive.
