Nature: Yosemite's "firefall"

We leave you this Sunday at California's Yosemite National Park (closed by snow this year), where last year's "firefall" - when the falls are lit by the setting sun - was one for the ages. Videographer: Lance Milbrand.

    The natural Firefall is one of Yosemite National Park’s most amazing spectacles. Around the second week of February, the setting sun hits Horsetail Fall at just the right angle to illuminate the upper reaches of the waterfall. And when conditions are perfect, Horsetail Fall glows orange and red at sunset.

    Awww! I thought this was going to be a ‘tip of the hat’ to the “real” firefall they used to do way back in the day. When at nightfall, they’d push buckets og glowing coals over the rock escarpment. Truly a huge fire potential, but magnificent to see.

    Too bad you could not spend the money to get actual video clips from Horsetail Falls. Panning over stills doesn't cut it. I usually enjoy your nature segments, but this one is disappointing. The grandeur of Yosemite is hard to capture in imagery, but you could have done better.
