Unveiling

Watching a snowstorm clear in Yosemite is an experience hard to describe in words. As the mist starts to clear revealing the massive granite formations surrounding the valley, the grandeur of the place suddenly becomes apparent.

Valley of Flowers

Above average winter precipitation, after years of drought, has resulted in an unusually beautiful wild-flower display in various parts of California. This remote central region has witnessed a super bloom. It's literally miles and miles of spring flowers all around you. The hillside seems to have been painted in a wide range of colors.

Marooned Valley

A severe snow storm unloaded more than 2 feet of snow overnight in Yosemite Valley. Surrounding high Sierra got more than 10 feet. All roads leading to the valley had to be closed, marooning visitors inside. As the storm finally starts to clear, beauty of the snow clad valley was breath taking. Few fortunate souls had the chance to witness it. Yosemite National Park
