Yosemite Firefall - Horsetail Fall, Glacier Point

Yosemite’s most dazzling sight

For two weeks in February, the final rays of the setting sun hit Horsetail Fall at the perfect angle, illuminating the waterfall like glowing lava.

For nearly a century, glowing embers tumbled over the edge of Glacier Point, creating a glittering stream of light over 1,000 feet tall.
