Re: How can anyone not

Yeah, this view never gets old. It's taken from the parking lot where many people stop for the all around view. Kind of like the view of Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies.

Re: Holy Christ ..

Blunder Dome!
I actually tried to climb Polly Dome from the lake when I was new to hiking back in '94 and almost lost it on the steep smooth granite before inching my way back down on my butt.

Re: Holy Christ ..

Pywiack Dome looks more like my speed, but
I'd probably need a rope and crampons.

1994 ... was a very good year!
I was working at Sequoia NP ..
