A couple weeks ago now. It's not possible to do justice to the roaring water at anything like the actual scale, even with video, but here are just a few snapshots from our hikes along Hetch Hetchy to Rancheria Falls, and up to Glacier Point and back down past Nevada Falls. The purple flower is (I think) harvest brodiaea, which looks a lot like our local Ithuriel's spear and is abundant and vibrant along the trail out to Rancheria. Wading knee-deep across the Valley floor flooded by the icy Merced is not something I would be eager to do again... or would I? (See my colleague MK in the last photo...)
