A Dome of Another View – Year of Yosemite (YOY) – Day 253

Half Dome viewed from the Mirror Lake Trail

Half Dome viewed from a vantage point near the Mirror Lake Trail

This photograph of Half Dome shows just the tip of the noted peak. We met a ranger guiding a group around Mirror Lake and we asked about certain sights in the area and he recommended an ascent to a vantage point where we could see a view of Half Dome that not many others get to witness.

I was intrigued by this suggestion so I began the upward trek, but it was going to take more time than I had planned for so I just snapped this one shot and returned. I do have a minor regret that I didn’t go to the top of the trail to get a fuller view of Half Dome, but as they say, that is water under the bridge now.
