*PICS* Hiked Half Dome yesterday!

Crazy hike. 17 miles total, took me 13 hours, and I had a pretty severe case of dehydration that nearly sent me to the hospital.

I made it to the summit and it was all around incredible, here are some shots.

On the way up with Half Dome in the background:

I rarely blaze before a hike, and surprisingly not afterwards. I don't mix weed and exercise much at all, weed is for the relaxing down times. After a hike the endorphins are pumping so much, I feel like anymore more would be a waste.

That Dunk bro is one of my best bros, I've known him since I was 15.

There should never be that many people anywhere you 'hike'. Thats more like a school field trip.

agreed man, this one gets thousands per year, and its only possible to summit without techinical climbing skills for 3-4 months of the year when the snow has melted off.

My buddy climbed the north face of half dome about 15 years ago. Spent 2 nights on the wall I think? Had to tak shits in paper bags and hurl them out away from the wall. He's got some great pics from up there.

I thought the two were closely correlated as they take cardio endurance.

I got fugged up after 17 miles, but I recovered after a few hours. Pretty intense though for me.

 

[MichaelScott]

[xrsist]

looks like a good day

AWesome lestat

 

[goin on 4T]

Yeah its a beautiful hike the worst part is the last part climing up the line to the very top. There are some awesome creeks on the way up too! I would like to go back and just fish in some of those creeks. Bet there are some pretty pink trout in those creeks!

 

[Basikstylz]

Thats pretty sick Lestat. I have always wanted to hike half dome. I have gone up Vernal several times, but never been up half dome.

hell yeah. rainbow trout are catch and release all year round they, they want to keep as many of those beautiful fish there as they can.

yeah altitude affects everyone differently, some people are better suited for it, some people cannot acclimate, period.
