Looking for a lesser-known perspective of Half Dome? Until Tioga Road reopens later in the spring, Olmstead Point is accessible via hike. And with these views, it`s definitely worth the trek!

Yosemite`s wilder residents have a way of making quiet moments like these even more magical. Spotted here: deer crossing the Merced River.

Have you experienced the thrill of waterfall season in Yosemite Mariposa County?
Here are some of the tips shared by @themasseyadventures with their great reel:
——
🌼 If you plan to hike to both Vernal & Nevada Falls, start your day early! Getting to the top of Nevada Falls is 7.2 miles round trip and strenuous! ‼️
🌼 Bring plenty of water, sunscreen, snacks, and a raincoat (you will get wet on the Mist Trail). 💧
🌼 Hiking shoes with good grip are a must for this hike as it gets very slippery on the steps along side Vernal Falls! 🥾
