We made a quick February visit to Yosemite Valley. Taking advantage of lodging discounts at Yosemite Valley Lodge, we reserved ahead and gambled on the weather. We caught a glimpse of the natural Firefall at Horsetail Fall on El Capitan, when the setting sun illuminates the waterfall and casts a warm, fiery glow resembling a cascade of fire. One of the many stunning views in Yosemite.
