Year of Yosemite (YOY) – Day 67 (Floating on the Merced)

Rafting on the Merced River-Yosemite

Scores of rafters enjoyed the well-flowing pace of the Merced River

Yosemite is truly an outdoor playground and there was ample opportunity for those who enjoy rafting or kayaking. The Merced River was near peak performance as this picture taken near the Swinging Bridge picnic area attests.

Area in back of the Majestic/Ahwahnee HotelA wooded area in back of the former Ahwahnee Hotel now named the Majestic Yosemite Hotel

Nestled in the valley with mountains rising up behind it, the Majestic Yosemite Hotel sits comfortably near the Merced River which has a number of stone bridge crossings. The use of natural materials against the formidable grandeur of Yosemite is a nice accompaniment.
