Located in central California, Yosemite National Park was established in 1890. Almost 95 percent of the park’s 747,956 acres is classified as wilderness. The Valley is a 7 mile wide canyon with incredible rock formations, including El Capitan, the world's tallest granite monolith and one of the world's top rock climbing destinations. It attracts rockclimbers,
who spend days on its sheer
face to reach the top. Yosemite Falls is the largest waterfall in North America with breathtaking views. Peak visitation at the is in the spring as it is comprised entirely of melting snow. The park is also known for its Giant Sequoia trees, which are estimated to be over 3,000 years old.
On the left Elt Captain, the world's largest monolith of exposed granite, rises over 3,600 feet above the valley floor. To the right Bridalveil fall drops over 600 feet into Yosemite Valley's Merced River
Soaring cliffs, rugged
canyons, valleys,
gigantic trees, and
waterfalls all combine
to lend Yosemite
its incomparable
beauty. Each season
offers a different
experience, from the
swelling waterfalls of spring to
the russet colors of fall.
