[...] 317 feet Vernal Falls is rather short compared to towering Yosmite Falls (2420 feet) and Bridalveil (670 feet), but it packs the power of a heavy lifter, tossing down a river of water [...]

JJ: You and Jeff would really appreciate Yosemite’s majesty. It’s on the edge of truly unbelievable.

Thanks Mike. I’ll check out your site!

Suzanne: Isn’t it, though? In our present somewhat jaded age, I’m glad there are still things in the world that can astound us.

Cate: With the volume of water rushing past, it was hard to imagine it could ever run dry. When in San Francisco I met a man who told me about his “Yosemite summer” as a sixteen year old. He said that in the dry season campers used to pour campfire ashes from the top of the falls creating a sort of “firefall”.

Mark: Even without all the falls flowing, it is some of America’s most beautiful country. I’d love to see it in the less crowded early fall; although, a week day visit does cut down on the crowd situation.

Rainfield: Music can do the same thing, can’t it? It’s good to feel slightly overwhelmed by nature’s power from time to time.

Thank you, Donald. There are so many worthy destinations. ~Seems like you can’t see one place without stirring curiosity about another!

I think the Yosemite Valley floor with its stupendous waterfalls, dramatic rock walls, Mirror Lake and lush greenery is one of the best places in the world. Sadly so do many thousands of others.
