Wow, I have yet to hike up to 1/2 dome one of these days. It's on my "to-do" list! Was it treacherous? Dang, 18.6 miles in 9.75 hours. How about bathroom breaks or was there no such thing? =)
Public restrooms exist at the top of Nevada Falls. Private restrooms (re: behind rocks and trees) exist all the way to the top!
