| 48 hours with no showers [ home ] Yosemite in the blaze of a warm spring. 9 friends and I went to check out the waterfalls of this post-rain season -- and it was spectacular. Just about everyone was sore as heck from climbing up to various heights (Liza did rockclimbing, Anthony, Mark, John, Stacy, and Mark went up to Yosemite Falls, while Darryl, Lee, and I went to Nevada Falls). As fun as it was lovely. Despite the cool nights, it wasn't as arctic as we'd been worried about. But the showers were so disgusting at Curry Camp... <shrug>. Forget it!
