Careful not to interpret "There's no snow in Yosemite" as all of the very
large Yosemite National Park that has some good high elevations in it, when
perhaps the author meant to say "Yosemite Valley" which, of course, sits at much
lower elevation and the top of Half Dome is only 8,836 feet or so in elevation.
When looking at it from the valley floor Half Dome appears to be one of the
commanding "High" Sierra peaks, when in comparison it is a very low elevation
peak relative to the true "High Sierra" 14'ers.
