  2. "Won't you be my neighbor?" Yosemite is made up of various neighborhoods at different elevations, each with its own unique community of flora and fauna. If you lived in Yosemite, where would you make your home?

    A chart shows different elevations of Yosemite, from lowest Foothill Woodland, Lower Montane, Upper Montane, Subalpine, and Alpine zones. Photos show examples of each zone.

  3. Last year, Yosemite welcomed 4.5 million visitors and over 57,000 wilderness users! With so many people enjoying the park, even the smallest actions, good and bad, can really add up! Learn how to practice Leave No Trace principles in Yosemite:

  4. Often, we visit Yosemite in search of monumental landscapes and beautiful photos, yet we leave with so much more than we expected to find: a newfound passion for parks, a deep connection to nature, and a strong sense of stewardship. Is Yosemite an important chapter in your story?

  7. The science of hydrology seeks to understand how water gets here and how it interacts with the landscape, complex natural systems that are quickly shifting with the changing climate. Learn more about Yosemite’s fascinating hydrology:

  8. It's a crisp, January morning, just after sunrise. Yosemite Valley is nearly silent as you stand alone on the edge of the meadow. A few months from now, this place will be busy with human activity, but this morning, it's just you, the wildlife, and the valley walls.

  9. What’s the best way to get to Yosemite? 100 years ago, it probably would have been taking the Yosemite Valley Railroad! Learn more about this almost-forgotten piece of park history in our latest blog post:

  10. What a difference a week makes! Yosemite Valley has once again swapped out its white, snowy layer for grey and brown. The park goes through several costume changes every year, and winter is no exception! Are enjoying (or perhaps battling) snow where you live?

  11. Yosemite in the 1920s vs. Yosemite in 2020! The original photo shows the old village store in 1923. Until the late 1950s, most visitor services in the valley were in the old village along Southside Drive, where only the Yosemite Chapel still remains.

  14. Early morning in Yosemite holds a certain kind of magic (or so they tell us!) For those of us who are night owls, luckily the evening is pretty great too. At the beginning and the end of the day, light flows down the length of Yosemite Valley, and the granite seems to glow.
