Day 3 - Mist Trail to Veranda Falls and Nevada Falls (mileage = 7 mi)

Our lodge in the background, plus waiting for the shuttle to our starting point for the day's hike.







		Nevada Falls is 2.4 miles ahead. But we had already hiked about a mile to get to this point.

The hike up to summit of Nevada Falls was all stairs. 3000 ft elevation from valley floor up untold hundreds of stairs within 3 miles.

Rob (our trail guide) is in the background. Patty (one of the owners of Tahoe Trips and Trails) is to my right.

Such a \"poser\".

Going up, but looking down.



	Never ending steps.

Vernal Falls (just below Nevada Falls).

	I think this is the back side of Half Dome.



Break before we climb somemore steps.	Nevada Falls

		Almost to the top.

		Finally! Crest of Nevada Falls.

		We're going back down a different way...not steps this time!
