Tioga Pass Opens ON WEDNESDAY
Correction: I just saw that the road did not open today… It will apparently open on WEDNESDAY. Sorry!
Just a few days late for me - I was up that way late last week - Tioga Pass has opened will open this Wednesday, at least according to a story in the West Coast Imaging Blog. Let [...]
Bike to Work Day
I finally did it. Rode my bike to work. Again. For many years this was the way I normally got to work, but it has been several years since I last did this.
Although I used to be a very active cyclist - with several 10,000 plus mile years under my belt - I [...]
Tioga Pass…
If I were a betting man, I’d bet that Tioga Pass might just open this weekend - perhaps even by Friday?. I’m pretty darn confident it will be open by next weekend.
(For the record, I have no official information - this is just my hunch. If you go up there and find it closed, [...]
Heyday Books (or ‘How Did I Miss This?’)

If I read correctly, Ebbets Pass may already be open (double-check me before you go!) and Sonora is probably not far behind. The road to Glacier Point is supposed to [...]
A Day in Yosemite
Up at 3:00 a.m. and on the road yesterday morning with Yosemite Valley my goal. Photographed the usual spring subjects: wateralls, creeks, park visitors, new spring growth in the valleys and forests, and a sunset - this one at Glacier Point. (Oh, I made it home just before 1:00 a.m.)
