Vernal Fall
Uploaded: April 16, 2009
Location: Yosemite National Park, CA
The 3 mile round trip trail to Vernal Fall is strenuous but rewarding. If you bring your camera, you have to have something cover it. The trail is not called the Mist Trail for nothing.

Beautifully photographed...worth the "hardship" you endured. #1114345Carolyn M. Fletcher April 16, 2009
This is my favorite falls at Yosemite. I don't know if I could get up there any more with my bad knees, but I think I'd give it a try if I ever got back there. Thanks for showing this to me! #7409960Jeff Robinson April 16, 2009

Thank you everybody for your kind comments! My wife couldn't make it to the top of the fall. For her, it was the Missed Trail. LOL #7412048Carol Engstrom April 16, 2009

Why thank you Carol! That's the best compliment a photographer can wish for, although I don't deserve. At least not yet :) #7412471Linda D. Lester April 16, 2009
