"Devestatingly beautiful " a Yosemite National Park Travel Page by Orbital_

How the hell do you do justice in these pages, and others, to quite simply one of the most spellbinding places on earth? All of us can wax lyrical for pages and post as many pictures as we like and they'll look, well, 'nice'. But I wish I could be alongside each and every one of you who haven't been before as you round the corner driving into Yosemite Valley and see your jaw drop, your neck crane and watch you simply mouth "Oh my god..."

Millions of visitors can't be wrong; they come here for staggering views such as the one captured above. However, millions of visitors can be a pain clogging up the valley, but if you strap on your walking boots, head out of the valley and pick any trail graded higher than 'easy' I guarantee you will loose almost 90% of them. What else can I say? Yosemite is a hikers' paradise, photographers' dream and quite simply one place on this crazy planet of ours that you quite simply must see before you die.
