Yosemite Sierra Visitors Guide 2008 - (Page 3) Arrive There’s Nothing Quite Like It Sure, other mountains and waterfalls exist, other places that may seem ideal to take in a sunrise or sunset. Birds soar in other parts of the country; deer frolic in other meadows. But around here, in Yosemite National Park and its surrounding communities, there is uniqueness and beauty second to none. Famed naturalist John Muir wrote in his book “The Yosemite,” “no temple made with hands can compare with Yosemite. Every rock in its walls seems to glow with life.” (559)83-43-YosemitethisYear.com There’s a reason for that. Take a look at the stunning rock formations, hike among the towering giant sequoias and picnic in settings filled with picturesque views. Then venture outside the park and relax on the shores of scenic Bass lake or stroll through the specialty shops dotting the area. Come to shop. Come to play. Come to stay.
