While I’ve never heard of an active volcano in Yosemite National Park, for a few days each February, you can catch a glimpse of a lava-like flow at Yosemite’s Horsetail Fall.
Horsetail Fall is spectacular enough on most winter or early spring days, when the seasonal waterfall makes a more than 2,000-foot drop down the east side of El Capitan. But on certain days in mid-February, the sun sets at a particular angle that illuminates the waterfall for a few minutes in stunning reds, oranges, and yellows, and turning it into something called a “firefall,” when you’d swear you were witnessing a river of hot lava flowing down the sheer cliff face. Hundreds of visitors come each year with cameras in hand, hoping to catch the perfect shot.

A couple of weeks ago while looking out my office window, I noticed a similar phenomenon when a patch of sunlight hit a bend in the lane to my farm. I fantasized that if I were to stand in that gorgeous patch of glowing light, I would somehow be transported to other-worldly realms.

Wow! God’s creation is breath taking; if words can justly describe, its absolutely gorgeous! As my husband would say, “Beam me up Scottie”
ah yes that is what i said to myself bef even reading your post Diana- haha Beam me up Scottie! Yes when it seems otherworldly you do feel like you are gong to another realm.
Wow! This is fabulous!
That is absolutely stunning! I would love to see that in person. We live in a fascinating world with many wonders.
That is so beautiful! I have never been there, maybe someday.
Thanks
