this is the view when  you come into the valley . where you can get the first look of a different nature after the big ride up here.
but you will not see this after coming there a few months later. it will all be dried up




this is a magnificent view late in the afternoon in october on the bridge just outside the yosemite village
with a look at the rock
listening to the name of
the half dome
it is said to be the stoned face of a indian woman whose tears you can see on the rock
the wimok indians named it tis-sa-ock
