NickDG 23 #1 August 18, 2006 That Yosemite thread being revived and now this talk off Half Dome got me thinking . . . I haven't researched it too well but I've been catching snippets in the newspapers about the plan to drain the Hetch-Hetchy reservoir in Nor Cal being on again. And there's another Yosemite like valley under that water. There's even El Cap and Half Dome "like" formations there. If they do drain it I hope the NPS doesn't get their hands on it. It should be left undeveloped and run by an elected citizen's committee. You'll be able to wander the valley in a pink tutu or BASE jump in a pink tutu – the only rule being no harm no foul. http://www.hetchhetchy.org/ NickD BASE 194 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nicrussell 0 #2 August 18, 2006 Never will happen. SF depends on the water from HH. There is 3 Billion in seismic retrofitting occurring soon. Those cliffs are for SCUBA BASE only for the rest of our lives, and many generations into the future. nic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
