- Did you know about the cave on Half Dome in Yosemite? Not everyone that gets their picture taken on 'the Visor' even knows that it exists right beneath them. I put this short, eight-step video together for those that are brave enough to have a look. The cave is a sacred site, that being the reason for my text to 'pay respects' in this video. Bob Madjic's book 'Shattered Air: A True Account of Catastrophe and Courage on Yosemite's Half Dome' chronicles the tragic story all too well.
The entire Half Dome hike is hazardous and extremely strenuous. Missteps are very dangerous in many places along the route, be extra careful. The cave entrance is very close to the edge, and there is no turning back if you go over. Don't attempt cave entry unless you are sure-footed and extra cautious. I strongly recommend studying Rick Deutsch's excellent book 'One Best Hike: Yosemite's Half Dome' before you take the hike. I also have two videos on my Half Dome Hikes in my channel to get a sense of what it's like:
• Half Dome Cable Ramp (...
• Half Dome Cable Ramp I...

Great video! I climbed up a couple of days ago...didn't know about the cave! But I didn't even go out to the very end of the point. That point is going to break off one day...
AMAZING VIDEO THANKS FOR SHARING
People have been killed in that cave by lightening
The date of people being killed in this cave by lightning is July 29, 1985. The main lesson is do not go up Half Dome when thunderstorms are forecasted. Half Dome is basically a tall mountain and gets struck by lightning during thunderstorms.
Yes, 5 young men went up during the thunderstorm despite warning signs and hikers telling them to turn back. 2 died, 2 were very seriously injured. Lightning is no joke. It loves half dome during those storms.
Huge amount of balls to get to that view 👏👏👏👏👍👍
Id never be able to do it not for anything in this world
Incredible video thank you for sharing this
