Paige: “Last year I decided to hike Half Dome on Labor Day. We got there at 5, met fewer-than-normal people on the trail (both ways), and had little to no traffic on the way out. I wish I could say the same for yesterday, didn’t have the time to wait to get up the cables. Good luck to those planning on going Labor Day.”

You know – if they would just put in a tram, it wouldn’t be so difficult.
HAH
Someone actually suggested that about 40 years ago.
He’s right. In circa +/- 1930 era there was a formal proposal to built a tram from the Happy Isles area up. A preliminary drawing was made. No go. Hike it!
