Look Ma! I don't have grey hair! This photo was taken in July 2000, the last time we camped as a family in Yosemite National Park. We'd taken a day to drive along the Glacier Point road, stopping at the parking for Sentinel Dome and made the hike up to the top of the dome.
After hiking back, we drove over to Glacier Point, took in the scenery, looked down on the Merced River as it crashed over Nevada and Vernal Falls. We looked across the valley to Yosemite Falls, booming with early season runoff. Obviously, we took photos and enlisted the help of another tourist to get a shot of all four of us.
I thought this shot would be appropriate for Flashback Friday, especially since very few if anyone can enjoy this vista right now.
A photo a day... is a blog about my musings on life and the little things I observe on a regular basis. I might not post every day. In fact, I'm positive I won't post every day, but I would like to post at least twice a week, if not more. Photos will accompany each new post. Please, as always, feel free to comment if you have questions or if you just want to comment. Feel free to disagree. Let's keep it civil and get along is all I ask in return.

What a truly amazing view.
ReplyDeleteYes it is. Just over the railing where the sign is, you can look down on two waterfalls. To the left of this shot, you can look across the valley and view the second highest waterfall in the world. It's a pretty special place.
