I have to admit, this downside is the biggest reason why we stopped visiting. Even with reservations that you have to make during peak season or off season when you can just go in, it's still just stupid crowded and on a level I find unbearable. Even well into my late 20s to early 30s, it was never as obscenely bad as it is these days. It's such a shame.

OH, it also sucks that National Parks do not allow dogs. This is another reason why we never go anymore.

That sucks they don't allow dogs,.... maybe I'll tell them my dog identifies as a liberal, hell i feed her and provide all her needs and she never contributes to the cost of all that care lol

Sitting up here watching the sun set and watching some climbers scale the face.

Sad truth is, a part of me totally gets it. I would argue that most dog owners are total shit heads that have no control over their dogs, let them run around unleashed and then tell you that, they're "friendly" while the shit tries to eat or hump your dog. But then, I kinda feel the same way about parents and their kids too

Amazing pictures! On my list for sure.

Drove up to Glacier Point to catch the sunset. It was worth the wait!

THIS ^^^^ for sure! And, what's really crazy is that a vast majority of the people at National Parks aren't even American. Not gonna lie, I kind of feel like they should be required to pay a higher fee to get in.

I have to pay a higher entry in many other countries where I have visited places with entrance fees.

You've seen parents let their kids hump dogs? That's disgusting.

@Traciehue has seen the superiority of my beverage choice.

I actually booked the tent. It has heat so we are good.

Beautiful! Did you see any base jumpers? I saw that a bunch were jumping today.

No use backpedaling now Mike, bottom line is a 187 is coming my way.

You know about Asians and dogs. Best not to ask.

wow some awesome shots! Glad you two finally made it back. Curry Village truly is a fun place to stay which is one reason why I book it every year. Sadly, don't think we will make it out there this year. Thanks for sharing the pics!

It’s been a great time and I like the ‘Camp Atmosphere’ of Camp Curry. My more delicate wife is not quite as enamored with it, but for the activities one does here it fits perfectly. Good times!

Wouldn't it be awesome if they made a camera that captured the view the eye sees? As great as pics like these are seeing places like this are just humbling

It really is the best reason to get out there and see it for yourself.
