Yosemite Valley 2: The valley is surrounded by huge stone cliffs and mountains, and is full of rivers, trees and waterfalls.
Half Dome: Half Dome is the most famous mountain peak in Yosemite Valley, and is the symbol of the park.
El Capitan: Perhaps the most famous place in the world for rock climbing, the route to the top of El Capitan may take several days, and the world's best climbers come here to attempt the ascent (some without ropes or any safety devices).
Climbers: A few climbers begin the several day adventure of summiting El Capitan.
Cathedral Rock: The first-ever free climb (without ropes or harnesses) of Cathedral Rock was completed in the summer of 2011.
Camp 4: This campground was made famous in the 1960's, as it was the home base for the world's finest climbers. Today it remains a meeting place for those who are brave enough to climb El Capitan.
Bear Box: While staying in the park's campgrounds, it is required to keep all food in a bear box. The park's many black bears are strong enough to break into cars if they smell or see any fear.
Camping: Camping is also allowed in the park's backcountry, far from all roads, buildings and people.
Lake: The backcountry area is wild and full of beautiful lakes, mountains and forests.
Yosmite Falls: The tallest waterfall in the Park. Here it is shown in late summer. In spring the flow of water is much stronger.
Yosemite Falls Base: It is possible to climb to the base of the falls.
Night: Because the park is located far from any cities, the night sky is very beautiful.
