Upon arriving to the park entrance, at night, we discovered some pretty ice and snow packed roads. There had been chain requirements and 4 wheel drive was pretty much a necessity. I seem to have a habit of arriving to our destination after dark and this was no exception. Instead of only being dark though, we got to park in a tight site with a bunch of snow. After repeated unsuccessful attempts to park on the most level portions of snow in the site, we finally got pretty close and it worked out okay. It was colder than we expected and there was about 2 feet of snow throughout the campgrounds but it was fun for all of us.
We ended up spending a good amount of time in the Ahwahnee Hotel's big room sitting by the fire, running around with Sadie, and relaxing. We also drove up to Wawona one afternoon and I finally got my cheeseburger fix there. We did a few short hikes and checked out Badger Pass ski hill and watched the ice skaters at Curry Village. It was a really good time and was neat to see the beauty of Yosemite in the winter. We took some pictures too!
