In Search of Sunset Light on El Capitan

Aftger popping into Starbucks in Coursegold for some Internet time, I continued on to Yosemite Valley just in time for sunset.

This is when the sunset light should have been striking Horsetail Falls as it spilled off or El Capitan, but the waterfall didn’t seem to be flowing, and the light didn’t reach that spot anyway. The sunset light selectively falling on Horsetail Falls is a rare annual event, so unless the weather forecast for this weekend clears up enough for me to make the trek to check it out, it looks like next Winter may be my next opportunity to catch this incredible natural light show.
