The difference of hiking and at home is when you’re hiking, you have to sleep outside and it’s cold in the morning and at home you’re sleeping in a warm bed and [there is] tv, good food, and a lot of things but when you’re hiking or backpacking it’s way different because there are no noises and it’s beautiful and I wish everyone could see it.
Why summit…because I would take a rock from Cloud’s Rest because my camera died and I want something from Cloud’s Rest because I can show my parents and later on when I have a family I could bring them here.
When I read those pieces of paper, [they] made [me] feel a lot better and made me think what [am] I going to do in life. What to do to make Yosemite better and clean. I will always remember this day. Thank you Andy, Elspie, and Katie.
[I learned] to keep the world clean and tell people to check out this place because it’s beautiful and each and [every] one of us owns it.
