While looking through photo albums a couple of days ago, I came across pictures from our trip to Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park (California) in July, 1990. The area is breathtakingly beautiful, so I decided to scan a few Yosemite photos and share with you. These pictures were taken with a 35mm film camera. (FYI: The park will celebrate its 125th anniversary on October 1, 2015.) |
| Rising more than 3,000 feet above the valley floor, El Capitan is the largest monolith of granite in the world. |
 |
| Half Dome is perhaps the most recognized symbol of Yosemite, rising nearly 5,000 feet above the valley floor. |
 |
| Here's another view of Half Dome, taken from the valley floor. |
 |
| Yosemite Falls (2,425 ft) flows approximately from November through July. Since we were there in July, the water flow was lighter but still impressive. |
 |
| At the base of the lower portion of Yosemite Falls, just one of many beautiful waterfalls in the park. |
You should be able to zoom in and out on this map.
