Our last few days have been spent in Yosemite National Park. With frozen lakes and snow covering the ground in areas, it has been hard to get used to the extreme temperature change from Death Valley! We have done a good deal of hiking and even a bit of bike riding... Bridalveil Falls, Yosemite Falls, Mirror Lake and Glacier Point... all stunning destinations! The only complaint is the amount of tourists. This is like the Disney World of National Parks. We have experienced morning traffic jams trying to enter the park and there is absolutely NO parking anywhere!!!
Today we went for a horseback ride to avoid the more heavily populated areas. We were surprised by the ruggedness of the trail with steep mountain switchbacks. We saw our first bear and several deer along the way.
We are actually camping outside the park in the area near Bass Lake. Waking up every morning to the sun rising over the water has been awesome! More to come soon....
