Been there, done this, nine times - all in one day! 200lbs of gear?!?!? What are they carrying?!?!? ...a kitchen sink?!?!? Real men and women do this in a day. Great hike! The trail has had MAJOR improvements since this video was made.
For your tenth trip ... ( 4 months ago by openroadtv)
For your tenth trip, try carrying a Sony broadcast camcorder, tripod, lenses, cables, audio gear and enough batteries to shoot for fifteen hours without recharging. Then take the time to record every move, retrace your steps to shoot close-ups and different angles, stop (while everyone else continues hiking) to capture the great scenery, interview other hikers along the way, and come back with enough great material to construct an 8-minute broadcast story for a major-market television series.

For me, I keep traveling light. For you, I am very impressed and applaud the finished product. I am certain you'll agree that the Half Dome train is not for the faint of heart. It requires both mental and physical ability working together, especially on the way back down when it feels like your body is being pounded into the ground like a tent stake. Unlike some of the nut-jobs that comment on You Tube, I sincerely mean the compliment. You guys truly are amazing! Keep up the good work.

I have never been anywhere near Yosemite Park, I live outside of the US. But man, wow.
I discovered this by finding a picture of Half Dome in my new computers sample pictures. I am not sorry for taking the time to look it up and watch this video.
Now I know that the next time I visit the states, I will be visiting Yosemite Park as my no. 1 destination point!

Just came back from Half Dome in September and the hike is not for the faint of heart and the cables are scary. Just hang on and enjoy the hike...! It was worth every step and the views from the top...breath taking!

Lol... I actually got lost on my way to half dome, and ended up on top of cloud rest. Then came back down and hiked up to half dome all took me about 11 hrs. It turned out to be a total of about 28 miles and about 7 or 8 thousands feet elevation gain; can't remember the exact number ... but something like that
