Description
Fort those who prefer a painted texture, this is a digital photograph to which a a watercolor filter has been applied. The road less travelled - Old Big Oak Flat Road - is abandoned, and its remains are cut multiple times by rockfalls along the north rim of Yosemite Valley. To reach the spot of this photo, it's necessary to rockhop across three talus cuts along the "road". Fallen trees present additional obstacles, and wildlife encountered to date on the way include beaucoup mosquitos and - one each - a bear, a bobcat, and a rattlesnake. What one gets for the effort is a quiet view of Bridalveil Fall, El Capitan, and Half Dome minus the throngs at Tunnel View. More about this hike at:
