Today was a warm Blue Bird day and it was no different cross country sking on Yosemite's Glacier Point Road. It was so warm we wore just regular shirts and pants.
This is skating past what they call "Clark's View" and is about 6 miles out on the Glacier Pont Road from Badger Pass. This is a great lunch spot with huge vistas of Mt Clark.

This is Yosemite Valley at around 2pm today and it has really warmed up. You can see that the snow is melting pretty good in the sunny areas but is still holding in the shade. The roads are starting to clear up and it is mostly snow tires in Yosemite Valley with it R2 in the Badger Pass area.

Today is a beautiful day with white wispy clouds floating around. The chain controls which have been down to El Portal are now lifted up into Yosemite Valley.
