August 23, 1921. Tuesday morning we started for the Yosemite Valley, about 61 miles from Lake Tenaya. We certainly hit some terrible roads and only made about 55 miles the entire day, most of the time I was pushing, from behind, to go up the grades. We had to get out of the park to enter it at another end to get to the Valley and the roads were fine. As soon as we entered the boundary line of the park, our grief began. The roads were very, very steep but to make a long story short, after loads of grief we finally hit the control at Crane Flat and camped there for the night.
