El Capitan The world's largest exposed slab of rock, rising 1.4 km from the valley floor. | |

Half Dome to the right of this picture, it's unmistakable shape dominates the landscape, peaking 1.6 km from the valley below. | |
Merced River flows through the central valley, here right by where we stayed at Housekeeping Camp. | |
Lower Yosemite Falls which, together with the Upper falls, comprise the highest waterfall drop in the US, at 740 m. | |
Mono Lake Just outside the park, to the East, this fascinating lake, drained over the years to provide water supply for LA, revealing these strange limestone "Tufa". | |
