Hiking & Backpack Camping (Last updated 6/3/08): Two trips to choose from: Friday June 20 or Friday June 27 Guided Half Dome Scenic Day Hike: enjoy waterfalls,photography, nature Half Dome stands at the elevation of 8,842 feet. Yosemite National Park's Half Dome's missing half is presumed to have fallen offwhen the Ice Age glaciers passed through. The hike is perfect for photography and nature lovers. This year with the abundant snow fall, waterfalls are expected to be spectacular. "Rising nearly 5,000 feet above Yosemite Valley and 8,800 feet above sea level, Half Dome is a Yosemite icon and a great challenge to many hikers. Despite an 1865 report declaring that it was "perfectly inaccessible, being probably the only one of the prominent points about the Yosemite which never has been, and never will be, trodden by human foot," George Anderson reached the summit in 1875, in the process laying the predecessor to today's cable route. Today, thousands of people reach the summit. For most,it is an exciting, arduous hike; for a few, it becomes more of an adventure than they wanted. Indeed, park rangers assist hundreds of people on the Half Dome trail every summer due to lack of preparation and lack of proper conditioning. Much of the hike to Half Dome is an adventure into Wilderness, and, while there is nothing you can do to guarantee your safety, you can prepare for this trip with proper conditioning and injury prevention exercises. Hiking The 14- to 16-mile round-trip hike to Half Dome is not for you if you're out of shape or unprepared. You will be gaining elevation (for a total of 4,800 feet) most of your way to the top of Half Dome. Most would say the reward is worth the effort. Along the way, you'll see outstanding views of Vernal and Nevada Falls, Liberty Cap, Half Dome, and--from the shoulder and summit--panoramic views of Yosemite Valley and the High Sierra." - Yosemite National Park Service Yosemite National Park is famous for the Half Dome hike.
