Winter In Yosemite Valley

Winter is hands down my favorite season to shoot in Yosemite National Park. The footage in this episode was compiled from 2017, 2019 and 2021, and includes the massive snow season in 2019, Horsetail Fall madness, and what it's like to get snowed in with access cut off from both highways 41 and 140. (I didn't purchase the AWD Sienna until 2022, so all travel in the park was with my Prius with snow cables...which presented several challenges, LOL.)
