You will cross the creek in McGurk Meadow and follow trail signs to Dewey Point from there. When you get to Dewey Point you will see the back side of the middle Cathedral Rock. The surface of Cathedral Rock is rust stained and it's beautiful. Its coloring is different than all the rest of the grey granite rocks that surround it, so it is very easy to spot. Straight ahead you will see Cathedral Spires,El Capitan and the high sierras in the skyline stretch out for miles. Dewey Point, Yosemite 1/26/09 from Chris Falkenstein on Vimeo.
