Photo was taken in October, the sun as at a lower angle that time of year, could be sunrise.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion

There are no "pools of water about Vernal Falls" right now. Those pools of water are a raging river right now, so I don't think your argument as a "attractive nuisance like a neighbor's swimming pool" holds water.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
Sad news indeed. I guess people don't understand how something so beautiful can also be so dangerous. I suppose it might be human nature to want to play in the water while on vaction but some people seem not to want to stop and think about it first. I don't know what really could be done to prevent this kind of thing, but hopefully something good can come out of this. Sad,Sad,Sad.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion

I have to agree with David on the Bear issue. Man, if anyone in a car sees a Bear, they stop right in the middle of the road like no one else matters. People will inconveience a hundred other people just to convenience themselves.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
this was just crazy. Before the event I will shortly discuss, I thought the craziest thing I had seen in Yosemite was someone pushing a baby stroller up the mist trail, not the paved part but up the 500 steps. So, July 4 on Tioga road between Tuolomne Meadows and Tenaya Lake there are a few roadside water falls. Here where it begins. Pulled over on the side of the road is one of those rental R.V.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion

I'm just saying the guys a "Drama Queen". He could have done much better job showing Yosemite then he did.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
Any updates on the missing person? I still can't understand where this guy went. In the photos, he doesn't look like someone who could even make it to the top of the falls let alone continue to hike away from the area.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
When the National Weather Service calls it a late season storm, what season are they talking about?by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
Last night on The Weather Channel, Photographer Peter lik was in Yosemite shooting the local attractions. The guy is a Great Photographer but got a little dramatic in his quest to photogragh the lower Yosemite falls. It's a must see for all on this board. I think it is on again tonight @ 9:00 (06/24) on The Weather Channel.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
Sad news. People need to slow down when driving in the valley, more so in the Morning/Evening hours. Also, I know it's easy to be distracted while driving in Yosemite but you still need to pay attention!!!by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion

Like most of you, I have been on the Mist trail numerous times over the years. I have never thought that the trail was that bad when passing or being passed by another hiker. You just need a little common sense while hiking this trail and watch out for others who do not .by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion

The most important thing about Ansel's prints were the way he processed his negatives in the dark room. The plates maybe his, but the images made from these plates will not reflect Ansel's vision of the photo unless he was alive to do the final processing.by ERICG - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada.
