I went to Yosemite on the weekend of July 21, 2001 with my friend Kristin to visit our friend Chad who was a counselor at a summer camp in the woods. We had a merry ole time and I took some pictures.

woods - Sort of overexposed. We all slept out under the stars in a field next to a wood pile. Now that's living!
woods - I guess there was some forest around where we slept too. And cows. Lots of cows. Moo.
woods - And bulldozers. Clank.
woods - There's a prairie.
woods - The road leading through the camp.
woods - Big tall redwoods. Or some sort of conifer.
woods - This path led down to a small river where people go to swim.
woods - Woods.
woods - Kristin walks down the path.
woods - The river was quite beautiful.
woods - More river.
woods - Burble.
woods - Nice rock.
woods - Splish.
woods - Very shallow river.
woods - Chad found a hat.
woods - Little waterfalls.
woods - Pools of water.
woods - Back to camp. What a gorgeous skyline.
woods - This was up on a hill.
woods - This is another part of the river. Deeper water.
woods - Mossy old rock.
woods - A view through the trees.
woods - Some more river.
woods - Kristin and Chad enjoy the river.

Ever play Zork?

woods - You have found a shallow pool in the woods. The path narrows here and winds down to the water. You could try swimming but your armor might weigh you down. The rocks to the north are unclimbable. There is a path leading south.

woods - You are in a forest of tall pine trees. There is light streaming through the needled canopy. The path winds around trees towards the east and the west. To the north and south is tall brush that would be difficult to walk through.

woods - There is a stately conifer in the middle of your path. You hear birds chirping up above and see a small nest. You may be able to climb this tree.

woods - The river you've been following keeps winding south. There is a damp path that follows along the bank. You have an impending sense of doom. The air is very quiet.

woods - Part of the elevated path you have been following has been destroyed by a large tree falling into the ravine. The path narrows here and you find that your footing is unstable.

woods - The view from here is amazing. There are pine trees as far as the eye can see. The path continues to the east and west. Going north would take you down into the valley but there is no path and it is very steep.

woods - To the north you can see a small waterfall. It is very rocky, however there is a path that leads to the northwest. You can hear a faint roaring noise.

woods - You have come across a larger waterfall that pours into a pool that would be perfect for swimming. This is apparently the source of the roaring noise you heard. Your path is blocked to the north by steep rock walls. There is a path leading south.

woods - The view to the south down the river is very pretty. It would be dangerous to walk much futher down the river but there is a path to the west.

woods - OK enough. A closer shot of the falls. Oh yeah we went skinny dipping. Damn armour was too heavy.
woods - Shorter exposure so you can see the water droplets better.

Go back.
