And how the hell is the weather?!

I haven't been to the Valley since 2010 and I am taking my Pops down there this weekend to do some easy climbing and hiking. Show him some of the things I have done. Camp 4 has got to have tons of space this time of year right?
Thanks all!

C4 parking lot half full when I drove by last night. El Cap Meadows had a couple hugging and a guy with binocs looking up.

It's fully crowded with living entities.

Just go to El Cap meadow and see all the living entities living in that meadow.

During the Dawn Wall media drama the media had no clue what it was stepping and trampling on.

Everyone like zombies was staring at some rock, oblivious ......

I remember a biology class I had in college (what little of it I did) where the teacher explained the microbiology going on in high altitude soil. Now when I walk around the alpine high country I feel like I'm re-enacting Horton Hears a Who. Poor zygotian bastards.

Yes, why stare at the human drama on the wall when they could be holed up in a bunker chasing conspiracy theories?
