19 JUN 2000, Stemme S10VT over Yosemite's Half Dome after soaring from Minden, NV to Lee Vining, CA and -- realizing a dream -- across the Sierras at Yosemite. Had done it many times at Tahoe, but previously had always needed some engine time for safety at Yosemite since the Sierras here are significantly higher and wider. A fantastic day
