Description
Reflecting On Yosemite.
I love this view of Yosemite Valley. This was captured in late fall along the Merced River. The river is running slow through lack of rain. Because of this the water is smooth and very undisturbed just as much of the park is at this time of year.
The rock formation center left is known as Washington Column and is a very popular area to climb. Washington Column rises almost 1800 feet above the valley. Some of the free climbers can do this in a matter of hours and then there are other routes that can take a few days.
Rising just above the trees at right center of the image is known as Clouds Rest. Clouds Rest gets it's name due to the fact that many of the storms that blow in from the coast hit Clouds Rest first and tend to get hung up there.
During the summer when the river is flowing you can find folks fishing for trout along the river banks.
