Yes indeed, another Yosemite page. Click on any of the thumbnails below to see a larger image. I have been fortunate enough to have visited Yosemite many times since the 1960s and have seen many changes in the valley, services, and transportation. If you visit I would recommend using the free shuttle bus service. Not only does it go to all the popular valley destinations, those people who get stuck doing most of the driving (like me) get to play tourist for a while. Its also a great break for tired hikers!

The photos below are from visits in 1985 and 1995 to Yosemite Valley. I have a separate page for the hike my son and I took to Half Dome.
