Today (Tuesday) for our day off we climbed Half Dome in Yosemite National Park. For an extra twist we started climbing around 1:00 in the morning, hiked some SERIOUS uphill for four hours, and got to the top around 5:00. We watched the sunrise, and hung around the summit for a few hours, dangling our feet over the edge of the 5000 foot drop.... We bombed back down at around 8:00 in the morning and passed all the other hikers who were heading up during the heat of the day.
It was an awesome trip, I wouldn't ever do Half Dome during the daytime after having done it at night. An awesome trip with an awesome group of day-offers. "Ballsy Tuesdays" is the name we've given our day off.
