Pretty Cool Ride
An United States Search and Rescue van seen in Yosemite National Park. Photo by Patrick. I didn’t know there was a United States Search and Rescue. I wonder if this is a post 9/11 thing.

Tuolumne Meadows 5/27/08 from Chris Falkenstein on Vimeo. Chris Falkenstein took this great video of his trip up 120 to Tenaya lake and Tuolumne Meadows.

Karla wrote in to ask a question about my response to Primoz’s email. She asks, “Is Glacier point the best spot to observe/photograph sunsets?
