It was a cold at night and a slow morning getting ready. Thankfully, the skies were clear.
There was still plenty of frozen hail covering the ground.
The Lyell Fork River looking spooky first thing in the morning.
Lyell Canyon is a real treasure in Yosemite NP.
Donahue Peak on the horizon with Donahue Pass and the trail obscured to the left.

Today’s route and the rest of the trail I’ll be doing basically follows the John Muir Trail. There are a lot more people on trail than I’ve seen in a while… mostly JMT hikers.
My body and legs definitely did not have their normal energy/power. Hopefully, a good nights rest cures that problem. Perhaps it was the cold/wet energy sapping weather last night ?

You are now in my favorite part of the Sierra. So many great memories of the hikes Paul and I have done in that area while we lived in Mammoth. Happy trails my friend.
