Day 90: Benson Pass

Happy 4th of July! We saw few people on the trail today; it's like we have Yosemite all to ourselves. On top of Benson Pass, we saw our girl Spearhead, who had spent some time touring in Yosemite Valley - that brave woman. She described the gorgeous scenery with hundreds of people taking selfies with a good sense of humor.

That night we camped with her. "Happy 4th of July" she told us in her British accent, proceeding to make fireworks with her hands, complete with sound effects (pew pew) - nearly as good as the real thing. Our camp spot was about a thousand times better than the night before; few mosquitoes bothered us on our rocky perch with a killer view of the mountains around us.
