Yosemite National Park: the High Sierra meadows

As we drove the pass, the streams were swollen, snow was still melting on the banks and the streams slow down as they reach the meadows which seem to embody the landscape of the High Sierra.

The meadows are still quiet spaces, crisp fresh mountain air, spring comes late to the meadows and some of the bushes still had unfurled emerald green buds. The meadows are are made even more beautiful by looming volcanoes and smooth granite domes that surround them.
