Upper Yosemite Falls Cascading Down Granite Cliffs
Saturday, December 27th, 2025 at 9:09:19 PM · 2025/Yosemite Snow
A dramatic view of Upper Yosemite Falls cascading down between massive granite cliff faces in winter. The waterfall appears as a narrow white ribbon flowing through the deeply fractured columnar basalt formations. The rock walls show distinctive vertical striations and weathering patterns characteristic of Yosemite's geology. Small patches of snow and ice cling to ledges and crevices throughout the cliff face, while evergreen trees are visible at the top rim. The blue sky provides stark contrast to the gray and tan tones of the ancient granite.
