Year of Yosemite (YOY) – Day 95 (Stone Bridge)

Beautiful Stone BridgeStone work fits in so nicely in our national parks and this bridge is no exception!

It is a wonder that structures built so long ago with natural materials have held up so well. I so admire the stone work in our parks that enhance the beauty without distracting from the inherent wildness of the area.

When I came upon the scene of the bridge peeking out between the two trees, the natural frame drew my attention immediately. Especially nice (IMHO) is the dappled sunlight highlighting the colors and textures of the stone itself!

PS – Love the brown earth tones!

Year of Yosemite (YOY) – Day 37 (Old Stone Bridge)

Old and beautiful stone bridgeStone bridge…old…authentic!

I am a sucker for stonework and Yosemite has more than its share. There are a good number of causeways, curbs and cottages made of stone throughout the park. Using such a natural resource only adds to the beautiful surroundings.
