While others felt they had enough of hiking during this trip, Chloe and I couldn’t pass the opportunity to see more. So it was me, Chloe, Marc and our leader Zoë who continued through forest to the base of Lembert Dome, to a huge mound of polished granite rising 800 feet above Tuolumne Meadows. It was definitely one of the hardest and scariest I’ve ever climbed to get to the top. Not to mention, I was fearful for Chloe as the slope was really steep and it was very windy but she did so much better than me. I was the one who was lagging behind and slowing everyone down. 
The view from the top was impressive from a distance, but from the top, the endless views were well worth the effort!
What a cool moment this was! The rest of the group who stayed by the river spotted us from all the way bottom, so we did a little victory dance.
Coming down was even more scary!
