Haven Nº 020 — Yosemite Valley, California
Horsetail Fall
A thin waterfall on El Capitan turns the color of embers, on a few clear evenings each February.
Granite, waterfalls and one February sunset.
For about two weeks in the second half of February, the last sun of the day can turn Horsetail Fall orange on the face of El Capitan. It lasts minutes, and it needs water in the fall and a clear sky.
