Yosemite: North Dome and Half Dome

 

From there we headed to Mist Trail and John Muir Trail intending to do a bit of hiking - but we hadn't counted on the 30 degree temperature so we changed our mind.

Instead, we stopped along Happy Isle Loop Road and took a few photos.  That's our rental car with the lights on.

North Dome is in the upper left of the photo, Half Dome is across the crevice to the right of North Dome.

Looking at Staircase Falls from Yosemite Valley on Happy Isle Loop Road.

Notice no water is falling from Staircase Falls - one of the disadvantages of going to Yosemite in the fall.
