Chasing Gazelles: Hiking the 211 mile John Muir Trail from Happy Isles, Yosemite Valley to Mt Whitney, at 14,505 elevation the highest point in the lower 48.

Day 5: One last picture of Red's Meadow Resort. The night before, we treated ourselves to $5 showers in the bathhouse. They had no time limit on the showers so we stepped in with our clothes on to wash them too. Stayed in the hot shower so long I thought I might pass out. As it turned out, it was our only shower on the 15-day trip.
