The final segment of the GOLDEN STATE series is a two part gallery, with images from Yosemite Valley and from the top of Glacier Point. First of all, Yosemite Valley is a wonderful place. The scale of all the mountains that surround you is truly awe inspiring and the sheer rock faces that envelope you, nearly 360 degrees, make for an amazing experience.
PRO TIP: If you go to Yosemite Valley, visit on a weekday. The Valley can become very busy on weekend days. Save yourself some hassle, and go when the crowds aren't there.
