🌊 Vernal, Nevada & Illilouette Falls
From the lofty perch of Glacier Point ⛰️, visitors are treated to a breathtaking panoramic view of Yosemite Valley, including three of its most iconic waterfalls: Vernal Fall 💦, Nevada Fall 💦, and Illilouette Fall 💦. While Vernal and Nevada Falls are easily visible from the overlook, Illilouette Fall is a more elusive sight, often hidden from view by the surrounding cliffs. 🌲
Illilouette Fall is a 381-foot (116 m) waterfall on the Illilouette Creek tributary of the Merced River in Yosemite National Park. It is located in a small canyon that cuts into the south wall of Yosemite Valley directly across from Vernal Fall.
The view of these waterfalls from Glacier Point is truly awe-inspiring. The sheer scale of the cliffs and the power of the falls are on full display. The cascading water creates a shimmering curtain of white, contrasting beautifully against the green forests and granite peaks of the valley. It's a sight that will stay with you long after you've left Yosemite. 🏞️✨
