El Capitan Meadow

El Capitan is one of the most recognized Yosemite’s landmarks. Standing at 3,000 feet, the granite monolith is also one of the favorite locations for rock climbers.

Below El Capitan lies the Yosemite Valley. The Valley floor was formed by the glacier that was there for millions of years and that was largely gone about 10,000 years ago. What’s now left of the glacier is the Merced River that flows through the heart of the Valley.
