[planefixer]

Got back from NorCal late Sunday night.Here's some pics from Yosemite N.P.

Looking down into the valley from Tunnel View Point- Bridal Veil Fall at right:

Bridal Veil Fall (620 ft.) with my little bro and a buddy in the pic to give it scale:

Cathederal Spires:

Merced River with Half Dome in the background:

Upper Yosemite Falls (1430 ft.)

Lower Yosemite Falls (320 ft.)

Upper and Lower Yosemite falls- you cant see Middle Cascade that connects the two to form the highest waterfall in the U.S. and 5th highest in the world (total drop is 2,425 ft.!!)

NICE shots! I'm jealous. Yosemite has been on my list of places to go to for to long now, I need to find my way out there. Thanks for sharing and helping fuel the fire.

Thanks.I wanted to get some pics from Glacier Point but the road to the point was still buried under 5 ft. of snow.

mental note: if legal I need to fish the Merced River.

Hell, I caught myself looking for fish in that third shot.

I was looking for them in all the "likely places" in the river, even from a couple of bridges, and didn't see a damn one.Didn't see any holding in any of the holes or edges of the current and didn't even see any spooked fish darting around- it was quite odd.:dunno:

Josh..... No bears, just deer, Stellar's Jays,turkeys and Western Gray Squirrels (which are freakin' huge).

Everytime I see Yosemite I think about this guy who says YO SHE MITE on radio first couple times he said it I didn't catch what he was saying. Now everytime I see the word I have to laugh.

I was afraid you would say that. Did you get to the end of the park to see the Giant Sequia trees?

Funny looking at pics of YO So Mite on a Colorado forum. I live less than two hours away from it, and haven't been in years. I better get a trip in before I move to Colorado this summer.

Great pics by the way.
