Anyone ever seen the Yosemite Firefall in Feb?

[JerryMather]

There used to be a firefall show in Yosemite most every evening during the summer months above Camp Curry but it was stopped back in the 70's due to the impact on the valley.

Now all we have is this, that seems to happen most every Feb. naturally, weather permitting.

 

Has anyone around here been in the valley to witness this?

Not this one but as a kid I saw the eco unfriendly one

 

Are you planning a road trip?

[JerryMather]

I'll thinking about it, Eric. It would be very cool to see.

I would drive over for that. If you are still speaking to me Jerry

You sure your SUV will make it that far, without any problems and be OK being around someone that's a little off center?

Just make sure there isn't a tree with a big ole limb in the front yard or a puddle of gas in the driveway from the taxicab bub!

 

Oh and I may be back on a moto by then if this stuff clears up!

I am just old enough and lived close enuff to see the real fire fall many times when I was a kid.

The noise of the fire fall was awesome too when all those buring logs would hit bottom.

My mom used to make dinner for one extra too.

That was for the bear that would come every night and all us kids could see it in camp.

Man they would shoot us for that now.

Thank GOD I grew up when I did.

Thanks for the memories.

I saw them as a kid but the tree huggers put an end to that eco-terrorism.

Thank GOD I grew up when I did.

This year should be a good one with all the snow.

Yeppers.

 

From last year.....lousy pic, rather unprepared for the sight. Looked more like lava as the settting sun lit up the falling water.

 

[JerryMather]

That looks so cool or should I say HOT! I gotta see this thing first hand.

Here's a little more about it, along with some more photo's and the where the best place is located to view it.
