5/3/13, Bass Lake.
Had a Groupon for the Yosemite Southgate Hotel, so we "roughed it" there. I made sure they had microwaves, so we brought the lekue and nuked our catch from Bass Lake for dinner.

Stop along the road near Wawona

5/5/13, Willow Creek Trail
There's a one-lane road/driveway that leads to the trailhead, with enough space for two cars, but I think it's private. We parked a ways down the road at a turnout and walked back to the trailhead.

Harlequin Lupine

Went camping and fishing at Folsom Lake. We did not catch any fish, but were lucky to catch the lupines in bloom. Supposedly a massive bloom like this happens every 5 to 10 years.
