I spent two days in Yosemite Valley back in early April of 2005 which was also a big snow year. The waterfalls were spectacular; in fact there was water dripping off all the cliffs. Of course with Hysson in tow I wasn't allowed on the hiking trails, but the ranger I met told me we could go anywhere the trails were paved, which we did. There are a lot of paved trails in the valley If I go back again (and I probably will), I'll rent a bike so I can get farther! The scenery is well worth bucking the crowds!

Awesome pictures, w_d!!!
