[Leica] Yosemite Landscapes

[rgacpa at yahoo.com (Bob Adler)]

Usually several people die each year attempting to climb Half Dome or El 
Capitan. You were wise to be intimidated.
It is a magical place. Steve and I were talking about just that; how when 
you enter the valley, it's like you are in a place that feels like no other. 
There is no answer as to why, but it is palpable.
Best,
Bob

When I was younger I was into rock climbing- I've never been to Yosemite as
I was a bit intimidated by it from a climbing perspective (technical
difficulty and world-class talents).  I did read a lot about the Valley; for
first ascents Warren Harding nailed his way up El Cap while Royal Robbins,
ever the purist, actually climbed Half Dome.  It must be a magical place to
visit.
