Snake Dike to the top of Half Dome. A longer day than you'd think.

- This is probably my favorite adventure that I have done. It took us 17 hours car to car. We weren't in particular shape, and Jacque is slow going uphill, and we had to wait two hours to start climbing due to a line, but it was fantastic. The water falls were amazing, the climbing was easy, but certainly engaging with the lack of protection, and the views were constantly changing with high quality vistas around every bend.
My friend from Texas did Snake Dike the same way as you did and he was so wiped out he could barely talk three days later. According to my friend leading him he was so gripped on those 2K feet of slab before you top out he was on his hands and knees most of the way. They were about 24 hours car to car.
I was never so scared in my life. Thank you for the best video I have ever seen of climbing the Half Dome.
I'm an experienced hiker, but this looks like i'd shit my pants.
❤ I I am so amazed at the video, Super cool, I can’t do this kind of thing, but it’s super nice to be able to do it through watching a video from you and Jackie. Thanks a lot for the excitement sitting from my couch where to go Brandon all my, Virginia.😅
Thanks so much! I hope everything is going well over at KC. I listened to Kevin’s podcast yesterday and I always love how genuine he is.
Awesome video, have a great time. New friend here.
Holy crap - that was awesome- and quite a climb…
Miss you bro! keep up the videos, love to see it. We need to catch up!
Yes we do man. I think it’s your birthday so happy birthday dude. But I realize I have absolutely no way to contact you. Are you back on instagram?
The best way to do those routes is to sleep at the base. I remember doing NW regular and topping out at 11pm after being out of water since 4. Fortunately there's a spring at the base but I've never been so thirsty in my life.
Yeah I know how that feels. I know the climbing rangers frown on sleeping at the base of everything but half dome although I’m not sure what they’d say about sleeping at the base of snake dike with the campground in little Yosemite valley campground so close.
Amazing work you two. Thank you for sharing. Take care (:
What month did you do this
