Just entering the Yosemite Valley we saw El Capitan, the largest exposed area of granite in the world
View from the base of El Capitan
A meadow view of the Yosemite Valley
Ansel Adams famous for photographing here at Yosemite Falls, except it was too dry to actually have any water falling
View of the Vernal Falls, again this area was dry, but there are two small waterfalls
We sat under this tree for lunch with the waterfall crashing in the distance behind us
Amy absorbing the environment after our hike back from the falls
A nice view of the cliffs near the stream below Vernal Falls
Our first glimpse of Tanaya Lake, at about 8000 feet above sea level
