Hit the trail a little before dawn. Bit more chilly than I was anticipating, and I was a little cold before sunrise. The trail followed an old road for the first mile or so.

First trail junction with the Snow Creek trail. I had considered just taking the Snow Creek trail to the valley, but decided that Yosemite Falls would be easier on my knees.

The second trail junction was almost immediately after the first. Left turn to head down toward North Dome, right to head toward Yosemite Point
