It was an uneventful drive. Well, if you don’t count my husband’s city-slicker commentary. A long, long winding ride through the High Sierra on Hwy 120 elicited this: “There’s gotta be a better way to get into this park.”
The evergreens sported stoles of snow on every branch. Low hanging clouds cast everything in black, grey and white, which along with the snow, set the wintry mood. Bridalveil Falls hadn’t frozen yet (see above) and Half Dome dusted in snow was a beautiful sight.



Viewing the glorious handiwork of the Almighty, from this vantage point looking untouched even after 9,000 years of human history, reaffirmed for us the need to preserve as much of nature as we can.

Simply gorgeous. Thank you for sharing!
