half dome was a success. ~16 miles and ~5100' of elevation gain and loss. the cables for the final 400' climb were a traffic jam. once i got back down the cables, i trail ran the entire way back down into the valley to our campsite.
time up- 6 hours
time down- 1 hour 55 mins

I've applied 4x for half dome permits and never got one. So last time I said screw it and beat the rangers up the subdome. Climbed the cables in the dark (had my headlamp) and watched the sun come up.
Clouds Rest wound up being far a far better hike. Less traffic.
