Squirrels - Yosemite National Park (Part 16)

Yosemite National Park is a national park located in California that stretches eastern portions of Tuolumne, Mariposa and Madera counties in the central eastern portion of California and covers around 761,268 acres or 3,080.74 km² of land. Yosemite National Park is best known for its waterfalls, deep valleys, grand meadows, giant sequoias, giant wilderness area, and much more. I, personally, love Yosemite National Park. I think it is very beautiful and is a great place for photographs. I also happen to live in the SF Bay Area which isn't very far from it! I try to make at least 1 trip almost every year to the park. I visited the park several month ago and I am here to show you some of the photos I took in the park as well as some photos I took on the way into the park from the SF Bay Area. These photos will be divided over several blog posts. I hope you enjoy the photos! Also, I have route information recorded using a Canon GP-E2 GPS Receiver. If you are planning a similar trip to Yosemite National Park and would like to see the route I took, feel free to email me at the email address I provided on my "About the Photographer" page for a copy. I can provide you the route information in Google Earth KMZ, Canon NMEA, and GPX formats.

Now let's introduce you to the photos for today. The photos for today was from the 3rd day of my trip. After hiking up the John Muir Trail, I decided to take a rest near the Vernal Fall Foot Bridge. This is where you access the Mist Trail to go right to Vernal Falls (which was the trail I took after the rest). The Vernal Fall Foot Bridge is one of the main rest areas on the trail which has a great view of Vernal Fall, some places for you to sit and eat, and also a bathroom facility with running water (no trash cans though). If you are hiking to Vernal Falls, definitely stop here for a rest. The photos for today are of squirrels near the Vernal Fall Foot Bridge. If you wish to view these photos as a slideshow, just click on the first image, and a slideshow should load.

These are all the photos for today. I hope you have enjoyed them. Next time I will have photos of the Steller's Jay (Cyanocitta stelleri) that I took photos of near the Vernal Fall Foot Bridge. Please don't forget to share my blog posts with your friends! If you would like to get notifications next time I post, you can "Like" me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter and Google+.
