El Capitan as seen from the west

El Capitan as seen from the west

El Capitan is one of the major sights Yosemite has to offer and it’s figurative shadow is broadly cast across the Yosemite Valley. It is seen from numerous venues and areas making it hard to ignore.

The photograph above is taken from the west of the giant granite mountain and the ridge seen between the break in the trees off to the right is referred to as El Capitan’s nose.
