During the fall of 2022 I did a weekend trip to Yosemite and got to see a late morning sunrise hitting El Capitan, a vertical cliff famous for its exposed granite face which attracts climbers from all over the world. I didn't see any climbers that early in the morning, but I could see many groups gathering gear and heading for the trail to the base of the cliff. I think I would pass on that attempt. Hard enough to walk the trails in the National Park. I don't have any interest in getting "technical" and climbing straight up them.
