Yosemite does a nice job with signage.

I really appreciate information about trail length and difficulty... although I find they overrate them both. Or maybe I'm in better shape than the average visitor?

It was fun to know a little bit of the history, so I could imagine a stage coach on this path.

This guy had been eating grass from under a fallen log but ran uphill when he heard me.
|
My patience was rewarded when he returned to eating, then poked his head around the log.
|
Cute cabin to happen across.

I decided I had time to go all the way to "Twin Bridges" but...
|
... turned around here rather than cross and then hike on with wet shoes.
|
This is a common sight: one tree "holding up" another in a seemingly purposeful manner.

Salt and pepper?

The living and the dead.
|
What killed this tree? Fire? Bugs? Old age?
|
|
Two trees had recently fallen from the edge of the path leaving
deep holes and interesting root balls.
|
This tree fell exactly along the path. It seemed that the bark exploded off from the impact.
