Glowing waterfall in Yosemite draws thousands
STORY: This waterfall can look like it’s on fire
with the right conditions in Yosemite Valley
The phenomenon happens
for a few weeks every year
drawing thousands of visitors
to the national park each February
Horsetail Fall flows over the eastern edge
of El Capitan, the biggest granite monolith in the world
With a clear sky, flowing water
and a sunset at a specific angle
the waterfall can look like
lava flowing down rocks
(Renee Corral, Visitor)
"We've seen many pictures of it and it's just so spectacular that we had to view it, we had to come. I'm so excited."
It's so popular the park has limited
guests to avoid overcrowding
(Chelsie Layman, Yosemite Hospitality)
"Some people are speechless, some people want to come back again and kind of add it every year to get more pictures. Because it is truly different every year. Honestly, it's different every day that you're here to witness it as well."
