Yosemite National Park is in California’s Sierra Nevada mountains about four and a half hour’s drive north of Los Angeles. It’s famed for its giant, ancient sequoias, and for Tunnel View, the iconic Bridalveil Fall and the granite bluffs of El Capitan and Half Dome.

 

First proclaimed in 1864, Yosemite National Park protects about 3100 square kilometres and receives about four million visitors annually.

We visited the Park in January 2010 and stayed in cabin style accommodation.

There were numerous waterfalls in the Park.

Before leaving the Park we stopped to photograph some deer and then visited the sequoias.
