Day 1: Glacier Point to Illilouette Creek

Thursday, July 21, 2011
Miles: 4.0

We woke up at 7 and almost missed the Glacier Point bus, but a nice lady driving the shuttle bus picked us up and took us to the departure location.


The view was excellent from Glacier Point. This route did add a day (with the permit constraints), but the view of Half Dome, Nevada Fall, and Vernal Fall was spectacular. Not only this, but the climb out of Yosemite was made much less intense!


We hiked the Panorama Trail to the Illilouette Falls sign and followed another trail to Buena Vista Junction. The hike was down hill and short, only 4 miles total. We relaxed for the afternoon and ate food! Lasagna with mixed vegetables and mocha mouche pie. Went to sleep at 8,  ready for early rise and big journey to Sunrise Creek. Tomorrow: the JMT!
