Aug 10: Panorama Point wasn't -- fast twitch test on one lane I ran up to Panorama point before breakfast to see what it was about. No one there, and I shot a panorama of the limited view. Perhaps at sunset it would be much more interesting. Another drive into Cedar Grove. Along the way the mountains to the north of the highway (including 10,051' Spanish Mtn) seemed too amazing and so I stopped to capture them:
A quick double-time hike into Zumwalt Meadow to capture a few panoramas, then rush out to my car and race over to Road’s End. They are not there, which is OK, as I was a bit late. David was plenty busy getting ready for the trip, but went out of his way to get me a pack of Supra 400 film I needed, for which I was very thankful. We transfered all our stuff except a few items to my truck, and off we go, out of Cedar Grove, for the third time. It’s a long drive to Vermilion on a one lane paved road which hasn’t been improved in decades, even though there is much more traffic than last time I was here. Every corner has a hair-raising moment to see if a giant truck or fast moving pickup is barreling in from the other direction. We had dinner at the restaurant. There is a wierd lightning storm going on just over the other side of the Sierra crest, which is visible only indirectly from the lakeshore.
