Yosemite Falls and Switchbacks
7.2 miles round trip.
2700 feet of elevation gained and lost.
Nature's very own slip n' slide of hard packed and melting snow for the last quarter mile.
Approximately five thousand switchbacks. I'd like to think that's a conservative estimate. I'm also pretty certain there were more switchbacks coming down than there were going up. ;)
But *cue the Chariots of Fire theme song* we made it to the top!
One step and you'll be down at the lodge...the fast way.
