Half Dome is one of Yosemite’s most iconic landmarks- a massive granite formation that rises nearly 5,000 feet above the valley floor. Shaped over millions of years by uplift, erosion, and glaciers, its sheer vertical face gives it the striking appearance of a dome sliced in half. 🏞️

The hike to the summit is one of the most challenging and rewarding in the park. Spanning around 16 miles round trip with close to 5,300 feet of elevation gain, the trail climbs past waterfalls, steep switchbacks, and finishes with the famous cable route - a thrilling 400-foot ascent up the smooth granite slope. 🤯

Standing at the top is an experience unlike any other. Sweeping views stretch across Yosemite Valley and the High Sierra, and when you’ve seen this iconic landmark with your own eyes, it’s easy to understand why Half Dome is a true symbol of Yosemite. 😍

Moro Rock is one of the most iconic viewpoints in Sequoia National Park. 😍

It’s a massive granite dome that rises above the forest at over 6,700 feet, with a steep, quarter-mile staircase of more than 350 steps carved directly into the rock leading to its summit.

From the top, you get jaw-dropping panoramic views of the Great Western Divide, the rugged peaks of the Sierra Nevada, and the vast sweep of the foothills and Central Valley far below.

On clear days, you can see more than 100 miles into the distance. It’s especially stunning at sunrise or sunset when the light paints the mountains in golden and fiery tones. Despite the climb being short, the steep steps and sheer drop-offs make it feel adventurous - definitely one of those "must-do" spots in the park. 🌄

The California Tunnel Tree is one of the famous sequoias in Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, Yosemite National Park. 🌲

It’s unique because a passageway was carved through its trunk back in 1895 to allow horse-drawn carriages and later cars to pass through. Unlike some other tunneled sequoias (like Wawona Tunnel Tree, which eventually fell), the California Tunnel Tree is still alive today despite the tunnel cut through its base.

When you visit, you can actually walk through the tunnel, which makes it a fun and photo-worthy stop along the grove trails. It’s a living reminder of Yosemite’s history - back when carving tunnels into giant sequoias was seen as a tourist attraction rather than the conservation concern it’s viewed as now.

Have you seen this majestic giant sequoia in Yosemite? 😍
