Last month I started keeping a "hiking record" of all the hikes, mileage, and total feet I’ve climbed to gauge my progress, and to make sure I’m getting enough miles, and altitude in so I can successfully make the climb to Cloud’s Rest in Yosemite in August 2011.
Since I’ve been posting photos and stats for most of these hikes I thought I’d post my May totals too.
I’m astounded with the totals. I felt like I had climbed it all yesterday. I was very tired hiking up to Vista Point. I hope I can keep up the training.
After the stats is a little write up about this photo.

Sunset on Mission Peak. There on the right is Mission Peak. I was with 3 companions heading up the hill on the left here after shooting here. All of us training for upcoming hikes in Yosemite.
The plan was too shoot sunset and hopefully star trails, if the clouds clear from up here.
The golden hour was amazing here on this Friday night.
This was my 2nd hike up here this week taking the Horse Heaven trail. I was suffering a bit of leg/muscle fatigue so was a bit slower up, but I did hike farther so I suppose it balances out.
Hike stats- as best as I can estimate. I didn’t take a GPS with me

Total elevation gain- 2300 ft.
