Half Dome Cables - From a novice.
半圆顶的点评
点评：Buddy lucked out and got a permit through the lottery.
Few tips from someone who ISN'T a frequent hiker.
It wasn't impossible, but there are a lot of steps. Not just a path to walk, but actual steps either pieced together or cut into some.
Start EARLY. We started from the parking lot near Happy Isles Trailhead at 0200 putting us at Sub Dome a little before sunrise (in early October). You won't see much on the way up, but there was little to no traffic on the cables when we got there which makes the experience MUCH easier and more enjoyable. (We actually didn't see another headlamp until 0444 and another hiker in person until 0530.)
Tip from a YouTube video, but if you're trying for a permit have EVERY member of the party going with you apply for the lottery and EVERY day you're free to do it. This ups your chances, and for example, in our case he got one, I did not.
Maps of the trails aren't the best, particularly in the dark on the way up. Make sure you download offline maps like from Alltrails (or similar) but even then take a few extra minutes to make sure you're ON the path, let alone the right one.
Lastly, pack an extra headlamp. My buddy's crapped out on him about 2 miles in. Luckily the one I borrowed from a mechanic friend carried us the rest of the way.
Best of luck and is definitely a cool experience.

这里有一些来自非常徒步者的小建议。
虽然并非不可能完成，但过程需要爬很多台阶。这可不只是一条可供行走的小径，而是有许多人工拼接或直接在岩壁上开凿出来的台阶。
一定要早起。我们在凌晨2点从Happy Isles步道起点附近的停车场出发，结果在日出前不久便抵达了Sub Dome（时间是10月初）。在上山的途中几乎看不到什么景象。不过我们到达时，缆绳上几乎没有任何人通行，这使得整个体验轻松愉快了许多。（实际上，直到凌晨4点44分我们才看到另一盏头灯，直到5点30分才遇到另一位徒步者。）
有个来自YouTube视频的小窍门：如果你想获得通行证，请让同行队伍中的每个人每天都去参与抽签。这样能增加中奖几率。就拿我们来说，他抽中了，而我则没中。
这里的步道地图也不是很完善。尤其是在上山的途中光线很暗。务必下载离线地图，比如Alltrails（或类似应用）提供的地图，但即便如此也还是要多花几分钟确认自己确实走在小径上，更别说要确保走的是正确的路线了。
最后，记得带一个备用的头灯。我的朋友的头灯在走了大约两英里后就没电了。幸运的是，我从一位修车师傅朋友那里借来的头灯帮我们走完了剩下的路程。
祝你好运，这绝对是一次很酷的体验。
