OK, I put 1/10 of the photos I took here:

The Lazy Bird got left behind... only Larry got to go.
I do hope that Mitch and his pals get up the canyon. It was a really great time
to go actually. Sometimes more snow is better than spring runoff where
you are walking in water. Since I was solo I was able to camp on pieces of
granite every night. I don't doubt they get up canyon further and use a snow bridge
to cross Falls Creek at some pt.
Day 1 was up Moraine and into Jack Main just beyond the Isthmus
Day 2 was up to Wilma then back down to Vernon
Day 3 was down to Hetch Hetchy Dome and play around
Day 4 out by heading east and dropping onto trail before Tiltill Creek bridge
As usual Yosemite is amazing. Hopefully the pictures do it some justice.
If you are familiar with the trails the conditions should be fairly obvious from the pictures.
Didn't see anyone until dropping onto Rancheria trail. Talked to 2 rangers on way out.
Pretty cool that they are checking for bear cans.
Was pretty happy that the ranger at the kiosk recognized me and after telling her
what the conditions were gonna be like was on my way w/o the normal schpeel.
Here's Larry atop Moraine Ridge.
Was pretty happy at this point since at least I'd get to do some downhill and
be in the canyon soon:
Have fun and be safe
