Yosemite 09/29-10/01/2012

This was the first trip ever out to the valley for Steve and I, it was a blast. The park is a climbers heaven, a surreal experience to say the least. We unfortunately caught it on a bad week. The temps were in the mid 80's and there was a huge volunteer group helping to clean the park-which is awesome-however, they took up a lot of camp space, making it impossible to get a site in the park. The crowds made it difficult to try working any of the classic problems. This forced us to explore some of the lesser popular lines, making the trip all the more adventurous. The rock is so good, it made any problem feel top shelf. We were constantly on the move to different areas working our way further from the masses and somehow feeling closer, more in tune with the park. It was truly a beautiful experience, I can't wait to make my way back out there again this season.https://vimeo.com/50932773
