Description

The best hike in all of California is the 3 mile trek up to Vernal Falls in Yosemite, even with all the people on the trail it is splendid each step of the way. A great hike for all ages bring snacks or have a picnic near the top. Go in spring or anytime and give thanks. I was hiking beyond that 3 mile spot about 5 coming around from going up to Nevada Falls to get this angle Look close at the top to see the little people it gives scale to this mighty cararact of snowmelt that joins with other steams to become the Merced River at the valley floor near Happy Isles at the trail head. Follow the rules and stay behind the rails its only dangerous if you ignore the park advice. Enjoy this view or keep on going to the top of Glacier Point or even Half Dome if you have a reservation for that. Enjoy nature and support your national parks. View LARGE! and then look at this great Yosemite photo too.
