Description
Yosemite's Splendor.
Winter in Yosemite can be a real adventure. You can't really ever count on anything except that whatever conditions you have at any given moment most likely won't be what you have later.
That being said, sometimes even that doesn't hold true. Storms can blow in and blow out quickly. This was actually captured during one of those periods where the storms stayed away and blue sky was the story of the weekend.
When there aren't any clouds around the atmosphere has a chance to cool at night and temperatures can drop steeply as it did the previous night. The water moving over the falls gets blown against the mountain and freezes leaving a beard around the falls and a snowcone at the bottom. It was actually so cold on this morning that the water was actually turning into what is know as Frazzle ice prior to hitting the bottom.
