Beyond Olmested Point on the Tioga Road is Tuolumne Meadows. Here the sky, incredibly blue, was still painted with high thin clouds. We parked at Lembert Dome so Hubby could take a nap.
I walked down a short easy path to see the river.To see more skies, click here.

Oh I love this spot. I love skywatching thru the reflections.

ReplyDeleteHi Martha, In the first, the clouds look like an arrow pointing to the dome. The reflected clouds in the second are wonderful. Looks like a great day for a walk!
