Description
FEATURE OF THE WEEK
by LAS VEGAS Artists
Many who go to Yosemite out of over 4-5 million visitors never see this view of Half Dome.... One of the most interesting drives through Yosemite National Park is from the Eastern Entrance off Interstate 395. There are many, many viewpoints, and it is a quick way to get an overview of a major portion of the park, while you travel into the Valley if that is your destination. In one day you can see more spectacular views, than most see in over a week. We have always alternated trips into the park from different entrances. Entering from the South or West and North then the East. Each entrance gives you a totally different experience. Generally Memorial Day weekend we come in from the East, when the roads have just been plowed. Many times it is warm enough to wear a light jacket, yet the snow is piled 25-30 feet high alongside Tioga Road.
................................................
One of the campgrounds we like the most is just off Tioga Road about 3 miles from the Western end. We make a left turn on an almost unmarked road, and take a steep drive down ward into a Valley which is above El Capitan... Camping next to a stream of very cold water, we need no refrigeration for food or wine as we can tether it in a mesh bag which keeps it fresh.
Then we can take a hike about 11 miles from the campground, and see the fantastic view from the top of El Capitan of the Valley and surrounding mountains.

Bob & Nadine, you're so correct. I've been there myself and was impressed with this massive cliff face, but never saw it from this angle. Love this viewpoint captured with an amazing sky. voted
