Yosemite National Park
Serene and I visited Yosemite National Park in May and June 2004. We did a number of hikes including to Half Dome, Upper Yosemite Falls, Cathedral Lakes, and Gaylor Lakes.

Half Dome  |  Total images: 32
This was Serene's first time up Half Dome and my second. It was distinctly easier my second time because the trail conditions were much better.

The views from Glacier Point are better than those from Half Dome.

Lembert Dome and Dog Lake  |  Total images: 11
Lembert Dome is fairly interesting but I'd give Dog Lake a pass.

Cathedral Lakes.  |  Total images: 7
This hike is pretty boring and interminable but the lake is nice. Also, the meadows near the lake are mosquito infested.

Gaylor Lakes  |  Total images: 17
I like this set of lakes the best in the meadows. A fairly easy hike with spectacular views.

Yosemite Falls  |  Total images: 12
Hiking up the upper Yosemite Falls trail was relatively painless after descending from the higher elevations in the meadows.

Yosemite Point is just a little over a mile away from the top of upper Yosemite Falls.
