Ended up doing Ediza Lake as an out and back from Agnew Meadows Aug. 30/31 just to avoid any potential smoke issues with a longer through hike, and ended up having great air quality. And of course we heard about the NF closure on the hike back out to Agnew Meadows so that was a good decision to switch up the itinerary. Drove up to Tioga Pass yesterday afternoon after exiting Agnew and hiked up to the flanks of Mt. Dana. Great air quality in Yosemite but the Caldor fire was definitely noticeable. Will try to load the pic here for reference.View north from Mt. Dana
