  • Censored Ad of the Week

    This ad was banned in Portland. It sounds like a no-brainer: removing the outdated dams on the Klamath River is cheaper than fixing them. The best part is that this would restore a major salmon fishery, helping commercial fishing businesses and the economy. This stuff is still controversial for some folks, but consider this: If…

  • Photo of the Day: Sunset Over Yosemite Valley by Brian Helfrich

    What better way to start off a bright new week than with an awesome sunset. Today’s Photo of the Day comes to us from our very own Brian Helfrich. Yup, he’s the guy you’ve been seeing post stuff as Brian on Yosemite Blog. In case you haven’t met Brian please allow me to introduce you.…

  • Photo of the Day: Perfect Lake by Steve Broadbank

    I’m not normally a big fan of HDR images but this one by Steve Broadbank is an exceptionally beautiful shot. Taken early morning at Tenaya Lake, this photo is a great reminder that all this rain and snow we’re getting is VERY badly needed. Nice work Steve. Photo by Steve Broadbank via Flickr.

  • Photo of the Day: Untitled by Jason Manzatt

    The downfall about being an uber-busy super dad is that sometimes I fall asleep when I’m trying to get the kids to bed. I had this photo all picked out for yesterday’s Photo of the Day and ready to post but…well you get the idea. So TODAY’S Photo of Day is an awesome shot by…

  • Schooled at Clark Range View

    For a short time yesterday, I thought this would be a photo of two beautiful women on skis. Instead, it’s two porta-cans in a snowbank. Sometimes life is like that. I went to the Clark Range View trail, near Crane Flat, to see if there was any snow up there. It was a great day,…

  • Long Waits and Road Closures: Weekends in Yosemite

    If you’re headed up to the park on 140 (Merced/Mariposa) or 120 (Manteca/Groveland) then be prepared to wait. And wait. And wait some more. In fact, be prepared to wait half an hour or more. Road construction on the El Portal Road where 120/140 meet is still taking place and construction is in high gear…

  • Horsetail Falls: Condition Report

    I had the pleasure of taking Don Gale’s photography group out to photograph Horsetail Falls tonight at sunset. Thanks to the help of Jessie and Ryan, we were able to break a trail into the parking lot of El Cap picnic area, so the rest of the group could follow behind without sinking in up…

    It’s damn close, though. This is Glacier Point road by Paul, who goes by pc3f. Photo by pc3f via Flickr.
