  • Snow Snow Snow!

    If you’ve never had a chance to experience a snow storm in Yosemite from the relative safety and warmth of a cabin or hotel room the next best thing is to keep your eyes glued to the Yosemite Association webcams in the park. Here are two beautiful shots I caught this morning off the Ahwahnee…

  • Photo of the Day: Snow on Half Dome

    Today’s Photo of the Day is a really beautiful shot of Half Dome I happened to come across on the Yosemite Association webcam. This shot gives you a pretty good idea of the snow that’s been falling. More snow and rain are expected over the next few days so if you’re headed into the park…

  • Photo of the Day: Lembert Dome and Tuolumne Meadows

  • Like a Ghost from the Past

    A.J. Morris over at the Public Domain Photoblog posted this really cool photochrom from the early 1900’s. Judging from the angle it was taken at Artists Point along the old road from Mariposa. You could try to get the same shot today but unfortunately trees have did what trees do and now block the view…

  • Moonrise, Black Friday, 2007

    No hostile crowds of determined shoppers, no angst over not having money to spend, no fistfights in the parking lot over a contested parking spot. No canned music, no screaming kids on Santa’s lap, no elves with attitudes, no tacky Christmas decorations. No strings of lights drooping, no eco-friendly LEDs, no shards of shattered glass…

  • Thanksgiving day road trip.

    Well, it’s been a quiet week in Yosemite Valley. Frost has arrived, turning the cow parsnip flower bracts sublime. I met up with a coworker at breakfast by chance. What are you doing for Thanksgiving, I asked. “Just hanging out.” Would you like to head over Tioga Pass? I want to get over to Mono…
