We did it! After belaying Mac on his first trad climb 3 months ago, we successfully summited Half Dome via the Regular Northwest Face in under 32 hours. I had to work in the Central Valley on Thursday which was perfect since that put me almost halfway to the Valley.

As I was sitting in my office on August 7, 2018, I was already in vacation mode. I peaked at Instagram around lunch time and noticed that Yosemite NPS had just posted that they were planning to open up highway 120 at 1 pm. Perfect timing!!!
