About the sandwich:
Fresh kale and cherry tomatoes hand-picked from a friend’s farm, homemade lemon ginger sauerkraut, cabbage for crunch and color, with soft and mild port salut cheese spread over a fresh sweet French baguette. Sweet, tangy, crunchy, colorful, hydrating, salt content… this sandwich was ALL THERE. I put the fixin’s together on the summit of Half Dome at 11:30 am for a lunchtime feast, then realized how many more hours of daylight I had and decided it only made sense to venture further. I saved half the sammie for summit #2, Clouds Rest, where I could look back on where I had enjoyed the first half of my sammie. The kale was perhaps slightly more wilted, and the sauerkraut had made the bread the tiniest bit of soggy, but hot dog!- that sandwich was just as satisfying the second time around.
