Yosemite highlights

Let it be said, having been to the park now for every season, the best time to go is autumn. The second best time is spring, then winter. Don't go in the summer. It's hot, crowded, and difficult to get hotel reservations in the park. Here's a glimpse of what I saw and did last week. Even during what I deem its least pleasant season, Yosemite is still an enthralling, enchanting, absolutely magnificent place.
