In May 2018, I got to take the whole family to Yosemite for a week. In addition to shooting a wedding there, I really wanted to take my oldest son (7 years old) on a short backpacking trip and share my passion for the beauty of Yosemite. This hike was over 3,000 feet elevation gain so the littler ones couldn't come. The weather worked out perfect, although the temp dropped into the 30's, and we had such an amazing time.
