Four Mile Trail, El Capitan, Yosemite

This photo was taken along the Four Mile trail in Yosemite National Park just a few days ago. The Four Mile Trail is about a 4.5 mile hike from the valley floor(4000ft) in Yosemite to Glacier Point(7200ft). This is a difficult hike that gains a little over 3000 ft in elevation during the course of the hike. I was surly feeling the weight of my D2x by the time we reached Glacier Point. California is in the midst of a record drought so far this year. During a normal winter, this hiking trail is closed due to hazardous conditions resulting from snow and ice. I did enjoy this hike even though the worry of a severe drought was in the back of my mind.

I hope you enjoy the mono processing.

Thanks

BJ
