Yosemite

Yosemite National Park. Location: California Established: October 1, 1890 Size: 747,956 acres In a high-country meadow two hikers crouch near the edge of a mirroring lake and watch a pika as it harvests blades of grass for a nest deep within a huge rock pile. When they resume walking, there is no other person in sight for as far as they can see. And on this sparkling summer's day, the view seems endless. In the valley's crowded mall, families stroll by, eating ice cream, dodging bicycles. People pile in and out of buses. Both the solitude of the alpine ridge and the throngs of the valley are part of the experience when you visit Yosemite National Park. Beyond the valley, some 800 miles of marked trails offer hikers easy jaunts or grueling tests of endurance in the High Sierra wilderness.

This park, roughly the size of Rhode Island, is a United Nations World Heritage site. Did You Know? Towering more than 350 stories above Yosemite Valley, El Capitan is the largest exposed granite monolith in the world.
