Yosemite Valley from 33,000 feet. Flying into San Francisco in February 2006, I was treated to this amazing view.

Self portrait.Welcome to Yosemite.I am glad to be here.

Not in the Platte! This mystery dome is about twenty miles up the Merced River from Yosemite. We found it during an epic backpack from Mammoth to Yosemite. I put a picture here thinking that those who like hiking heavy loads into Lost Creek might be interested in this golden giant. Very sunny, so not a good summer expedition. Way past Merced Lake, where the plane full of weed crashed in the early 1970s. Maybe even a mile past Washburn lake. I didn't take good photo notes. <br>
<br>
Has it has been climbed? There are no journal reports, and I scanned it with binoculars, finding no slings. In my opinion, it should be rappel descended to avoid a heinous looking gully/bushwack descent. Also, in my opinion it should be climbed and hand drilled (wilderness rules) by someone else. Please email me when done, or if you need help.

This is a close up shot of Bridalveil falls. That tree is actually super tiny and makes this shot look totally misleading.
