MY FAMILY HAS HIKED AROUND GLACIER POINT AT 7200 FEET ABOVE CURRY VILLAGE. IT OFFERS A SUPERB VIEW OF HALF DOME, VERNAL FALLS, AND NEVADA FALLS AND CLOUD'S REST.
THERE ARE ROUNDED BOULDERS AND ANGULAR FRAGMENTS NEAR HALF POINT QUARTZ WITH GRANITE. HALF DOME IS OF MOSTLY QUARTZ AND GRANITE. IT IS A TALL PROMONTORY OVERLOOKING MUCH OF YOSEMITE VALLEY AND IS ACCESSIBLE BY BUS. IT IS CROWDED IN SUMMER. IT IS CLOSED IT IS CROWDED IN SUMMER. IT IS CLOSED IN WINTER DUE TO SNOW. WE TOOK A BUS UP TO THIS PARK AREA FROM THE BASE OF THE VALLEY FROM THE BASE OF THE VALLEY PAST VERNAL AND YOSEMITE FALLS. ONE TRIP HERE WE JOINED WITH MY HUSBAND'S FAMILYAND WE ENCOUNTERED A SUMMER THUNDERSTORM. IT WAS A 8 MILE HIKE AND WE SPLIT UP. BUT FINALLY MET EACH OTHER AT THE BASE.
