Yosemite Sunrise on El Cap Day 2
















I awoke about 5:55 Sunday morning and had a hair up my butt to run to El Cap and watch the sunrise. Danielle wanted nothing to do with getting out of bed that early. I jumped out of the tent and ran the mile up to El Capitan. I was a few minutes late but it was still amazing. I spent about an hour on the top. I went all the way to the edge. There was a guy sleeping in the rocks about 20 feet from the edge. I awoke him as I passed. We talked for a few minutes and he told me a few guys popped up at about ten o'clock from a seventeen hour climb up the face. They chatted for a few minutes then repelled back to the bottom, crazy. In all it was an amazing experience and would recommend it to all.
