Winter Sunrise at Valley View - a photo on Flickriver

We planned to visit Yosemite over the Christmas holiday school break, and despite the federal government shutdown continued the trip. I'm glad we did.

At 26°F, it was a chilly morning and each stop for pictures was a challenge. I am very glad we stopped here.
