USA, YOSEMITY: Hetch Hetchchi reservoir, Taja Road and Lakes
Eh, not letting us the Park Yosemite! I want to ride it and ride, walk and walk, but it’s time to move, because there are so many parks in the states that you do not consider. Today we will go on the Taioga Road (Tioga Road) towards the eastern departure from Yosemite.
Everything went according to plan, if on the way I did not meet a pointer to the reservoir with a funny name Hatch Hetchi.

For a rabid dog Seven miles – not hook. And here we are already going on the next winding track towards Hetchic.
Hatchy Hetchy Reservoir reservoir (Hetchy Reservoir) turned out to be very cute. Although, to admit honestly, for a minute they thought about whether it was worth going for him in such a distance and spend a few hours without that short day. We thought for a short time. Made cute photos, loved, pogged on the dam and went back.
Taja Road is very picturesque! She in itself is a separate landmark, and even the sky has pleased with fabulous clouds on this day.
In about the middle of the road, Lake May was attached (May Lake). More precisely, it had to drive a little, and then go along the path, but it was clearly worth it! Small Ozerko, hung among mountains and high pines – Paradise. There’s also camping on the shore, you can live the day-two next to such beauty.
Looking at this landscape, Andrews said: "That looks like the place where I want to live" ))
The next stop on the Taja Road became the OlmSden Point – a species platform, with which you can guess who? Policopol! I don’t hide anywhere from him))
Another lake – Tenaya Lake (Tenaya Lake). It is a bigger than the previous one and also very picturesque.
As far as I understood, the bulk of tourists explores "Heting" Yosemite Valley (Yosemite Valley). Yes, there is the greatest concentration of attractions, but, as you can see, and beyond its limits, there are a lot of interesting fascinating towns. Still, one or two days on Yosemite is very, very little, namely, tourists who want to see more often and can afford.
Practically drove to the departure of their park. Evening. Overnight nothing is clear. All the places where they wanted to stop – occupied, to others very far back. One hope for campgrounds without names marked on a paper map of California.
Late-not-late, and save time and not stop in beautiful places we are not ready. Therefore, here, dear readers, the next photo of the photogenic meadow))
Our hopes have justified! Almost immediately at the departure of the camping pointers – Campground Junction. Wrapped in it and found the place. Quite cute and cozy.
There is no water in the camp, but the river flows nearby, in which you can gain water for technical needs. But drinking water should be treated with me, yes more! And do not forget to replenish the margin at any convenient case.
Well, we went to put a tent, cook dinner, relax and sleep. Tomorrow again on the road!

Zhanna! AAAAAA! I have so much emotions after this article. Uuuuu! :)))
1. We are today, right today we rode on the Taika Road! It’s just unimagound beauty! Confirmed for myself that this part of Yosemite I like even more than the valley!

We drove out of Mammoth to Yosemite on a public bus. I didn’t even know that there are such. So the whole road (4 hours) is a solid pleasure! From the bus can be seen much more and better than the car.
2. I’m so glad you went to May Lake! Well done! Very nice Haik. When we were there, the ice floes on the lake! Imagine?!
3. This is the same Camp, where we stayed (4 years ago)!! Straight heart grated!! There, too, the snow lay! Normal year (2010) was, snowy, and this (2014) issued a meager for precipitation in winter, so even on the mountains in Mammont there was no snow.
4. Tenaya with you very unusual in the photo came out – just shifted as a rainbow! We also drove it today, and I said Ryan that if we had another daughter, we call her Tenaya! 🙂
Soon I will have to write our impressions about the last campaign, and right now I can say – it was super!

1. Yeah, Pauline, Taja Road – Super! Although I liked all Yosemite, which we saw, liked! Very vivid impressions! Perhaps because this is our first park, but most likely because it is really cool.
2. Maj-Lake we really liked! Such a calm, peaceful and clean place. Idyllic landscapes, not otherwise. There’s straight in old age to sit on babe and remember about all trips))
3. Well, we did not have snow, but by the morning the temperature fell well. So pleased that warm jackets were))
4. Lake Tenaya is this and was like in the photo. Water just like layers of multicolored was. In one place is greenish, in another blue, so this is not a fantasy camera.
Come on, I will wait for your impressions. I will not immediately execute myself for something meaningful until only shoes of impressions))
