I've got an itch on my Hetch Hetchy


Hetch Hetchy reservoir supplies a large percentage of the drinking, showering and ice cube water for San Francisco. The name irks many hikers in the Yosemite area, though, including myself. Such a name is really gross and too hetch-y. But it seems SFer's have no compunction whatsoever about drawing their water from such a krangly-sounding source. I, for one, am exercised about it. So next time you SFer's drink or shower or whatev--just remember: Hetch Hetchy is sitting up there bored as hell and fairly cold.
