Wapama Falls

During our one full day in Yosemite, we all were hoping to go up and hike around Tuolumne Meadows, but the Tioga Pass road had yet to open.  So instead, we headed to Hetch-Hetchy to hike to Wapama Falls, seen in the distance.

Onions and I came here last time on our way out of Yosemite but this time water was being released out of O'Shaughnessy Dam.


Both times we got PERFECT weather.

Lunchtime!




The drive between Hetch-Hetchy and the main section of Yosemite takes one past a couple amazing open meadows, at this time of year full of wildflowers.



Onions decided he wanted to shower, so we drove all the way to the Valley.  We were rewarded with this sunset view.


The highlight though?  Was on the drive back to camp, we saw a BEAR.

YUP, A BEAR.  We were all so excited.

Seeing a bear made the entire trip for Onions!!!
