Was in yosemite on Friday.
It rained most of the day on Friday.
As is often the case, the rain was followed by a beautiful storm clearing the next day
Headed up the Pohono Trail on Saturday. Put on snowshoes near 6000 foot elevation. I must have been near Old Inspiration Point, but overshot it.
Found this semi obstructed view, that must have been near Old Inspiration. Slopes were very steep heading down from this spot.
I was pretty happy with this view. It was similar to Old Inspiration, but was not out far enough to see silver Strand Falls.
On the plus side, the trees that blocked some of the view, also blocked a lot of dead trees on the valley floor.
I think I had been to Mount Beatitude several years ago, and saw Silver Strand and Ribbon. Had view of Bridalveil and Ribbon this time.
Need to go back and see Silver Strand, Bridalveil, Ribbon and Horsetail at the same time from Old Inspiration Point next time. Horsetail was flowing pretty good for a little while,
but it shortly sputtered out. The always elusive Horsetail Falls.
