Yosemite Falls is the highest measured waterfall in North America. The 1430-foot (425-m) plunge qualifies the Upper Fall alone as one of the twenty highest waterfalls in the world. We took the Upper Yosemite Fall trail (7.2 miles/11.6 km round-trip, 2700 ft/823 m elevation gain) to the top of the upper fall.

On the top of the fall, snow covered most of the ground, which thus was slippery. Soon after we reached the top, it started to rain and snow.

As the rain and snow was getting heavier, we didn't want to get trapped so we started to get back.
