Close Encounter With a Bear (video)
Here’s a video by a park visitor who happened to get some nice video of a bear in Yosemite. The bear is a cinnamon colored Black Bear not a Grizzly as noted in the video’s caption. It’s a common mistake, they do look like a Grizzly but they’re substantially smaller in size and their face…

The Sound of Water (video)
Today I spent the day shooting HD video all around Yosemite Valley. If you follow us on Twitter you probably noticed the steady stream of photos and twitvideos (video 1, video 2) as I hiked around and shot. One of the nice things about hiking around today was that I pretty much had the park…
