So I called in sick friday morning and gathered the family group to go do alabama hills, owens river, and last of all: good ol YNP.
now it was valley time. we split up and I met up with ben philbrick and we got to the base of central piller of frenzy and a guy named James was looking for a partner so we did it as a team of 3 and had a blast.

You seem to run into some proper wildlife on your descents! A fat-assed rattler last time, bloodthirsty bear roaming under the Pillar of Frenzy this time... well, at least Croft is (mostly) harmless....
