Description
Yosemite Horsetail Fall also is known as Firefall
This week was reported to be the best time to catch the 2019 "Firefall" display. It didn't disappoint. While I may have seen a more vivid red in the past, this year's phenomenon lasted for over 20 minutes, longer than I can remember. It just wouldn't end. It was a beautiful, breath-taking, creation experience. Some people around us cried.
Once again the forest was filled with people speaking many languages, but all focused on one thing: the moment the setting sun would paint its color on the ephemeral Horsetail Fall. Then for a few golden moments, Horsetail Fall became Firefall.
When it was over, Carol and I walked over a mile in the crisp evening air back to our car, blessed by what we had seen.
