Here is my story from Yosemite... I was there in 1985, if I remember correctly.
I had a Super Program and an LX (still have both of them). The latter with slide film. This is where I accidently put my finger through the SP shutter - horrors! It forced me to use the LX for the rest of the day. I did put the blades in place that night and the SP worked great since then. Anyway, I got there late in the week in the spring season. I was at Sequoia National Park for an afternoon and headed to Yosemite that evening. I was able to spend the night at the rustic hotel there. The following morning I got up early and explored. I did not hear my first person until noon. I did not see anyone until 1 p.m. I felt as if I owned the place. Talking to the workers there they commented that the waterfalls that year were the best in at least the previous five years. All in all an excellent experience. It was made all the more special since my supervisor insisted I leave work at LeMoore Naval Air Station as I had worked enough hours that week.
