Monte Sharon and I have made several family trips to that same area.
In 1978 we spent a couple days at the Postpile,camped at Minarets Campground.
Our daughter at age 18 months had a ball climbing the pieces of postpile.
The falls were roaring and sounded like you were standing right next to them.
Actually we were next to them across the river.
Years later Sharon and I camped there again. This time we did a day hike to Minarets lake.
All the way to the shore across from the towering Minarets .It was quit a trip.
Another special place for us that you have brought back out memories.
Thanks.
Frank
