AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We're really tired, just ate at in-n-out burger..uh...
SO, Saturday morning we woke at 7am and drove into Yosemite, park was packed, the ranger told us that there was no camping avaiable that didn't require a 4 mile hike in....so we decided not to sleep? We did our first trad climb, sunnyside bench regular route, really fun. Then we went into the lodge restaurant so Eric could watch the BYU game. We decided to stay there until they closed, at 11, because we had no where else to go. When they closed we set up shop in the lobby to the bathrooms. Plugged in the computer and watch Live Free or Die Hard. It ended around 2am and we were so pumped up we decided that we were going to hike up alfdome by moonlight and watch the sunrise from the top. Yosemite looks completely different at night, especially with an almost full moon and not a cloud in the sky. We arrived on the summit around 6am, we had been awake for 23 hours. We made a few friends on the summit but didn't linger, we were the first to head down after sunrise. Trail ran down some of the trail and made it to the lodge cafe for breakfast by 10am. Then, took showers, packed up, and headed out. Now we are at a borders in Bakersfield CA, driving to Whitney tonight, hopefully starting the climb tomorrow morning...
