13th stop – Salida, California

We packed up from the Boulder Lodge in June Lake and drove back through Yosemite on our way to Salida.
Salida is a single stop as we head to San Francisco.

Our first stop in Yosemite was a granite mound that we all hiked.
The pics are below and I will be posting a podcast later.

Our next stop was a 1 mile hike to see the Tuolumne Grove of Sequioas.
What a flop!   We hiked a mile to see 1 tree that was smaller than all of the Sequioas in the Sequios National Park.
Ben – I do not like any of your and I hate hiking. ( He just hiked up a 1000 foot granite dome and loved it. )
Sam – I hate trees – can’t we go climb something.

Last stop – Yosemite village and the Merced river!
What an awesome river.  We plan to come back and do some rafting someday.

We arrived at the Hampton Inn and Suites in Salida, CA.
We are off to get some of that San Francisco treat in the morning.

Adios,
The A-team!
