Spectacular views of El Capitan, The Half Dome and Bridal Veil Falls. Unfortunately, no spectacular view of a campground in Yosemite. I checked with someone who was not the Queen of Yosemite and was denied a camping spot. I could have waited around till the end of the day on the hopes that somebody would cancel but if I was unlucky, I would be really stuck. Where are the Queens of Yosemite when you need them!

That last shot is of El Capitan in the distance, on the right in the photo. A park ranger had a small telescope trained on the top and we could see climbers up there!
I'm sorry today's post is so brief. It is 6:45 pm and I need to get back to the campground before it is dark. Plus I need to do a quick check of where I am going tomorrow.
I have lots more pictures from today! But in the boonies, upload times are long.
