Half Dome, Sitting on the "Diving Board"

Hiked Half Dome in Yosemite National Park Yesterday. It was killer. (more pics click here)

Half Dome is a granite dome in Yosemite National Park, located at the eastern end of Yosemite Valley — possibly Yosemite's most familiar sight. The granite crest rises more than 4,737 ft (1,444 m) above the valley floor...As late as the 1870s, Half Dome was declared "perfectly inaccessible"

The Half Dome Cables Route hike runs from the valley floor to the top of the dome in 7.1 mi (11 km) (via the Mist Trail), with 4,800 ft (1,463 m) of elevation gain. The length and difficulty of the trail used to keep it less crowded than other park trails, but on long summer days there can still be a large crowd at the top and on the trail. The hike can be done from the valley floor in a single long day, but many people break it up by camping overnight in Little Yosemite Valley.

As many as 1,000 hikers per day sometimes climb the dome on a summer weekend.[7] Gloves are recommended for the cable climb, as are proper conditioning, plus sufficient water and food.

From 1971 through August 2007, there have been nine falls from the cables, three of these were fatal in 2007[7]. On June 16, 2007, Hirofumi Nohara slipped and plunged 300 feet to his death.[7]. Lightning strikes can also be a risk while on or near the summit. On July 27, 1985, five hikers were struck by lightning, resulting in two fatalities.
