Yosemite National Park Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia
Yosemite – an American story unlike any other. Follow us through the national park from its high country to its waterfalls, its towering sequoia groves to its valley meadows.
When ready, browse vacation packages to Yosemite National Park:
#YosemiteNationalPark sits on the western slopes of California’s Sierra Nevada Mountains. Most visitors spend their #vacation in Yosemite Valley, which despite being only 7 miles long and 1 mile wide, packs in more jaw-dropping scenery than just about any other place on Earth.
#Visit Tunnel View and stand before a panorama that’s reduced generations of visitors to silence. The Yosemite Valley ring road follows the banks of the Merced River, which shifts in character as it thunders from the valley walls, before gently winding across the valley floor. The ring road is dotted with trailheads that lead to 800 miles of hiking trails.
Drive along Tioga Road, one of the USA’s most scenic highways. Fill your lungs with alpine air at Olmsted Point, refresh yourself by the waters of Tenaya Lake, then spend the day at Tuolumne Meadow, the traditional summer hunting grounds of the Ahwaneechee.
For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it.

Full Length Buckhorn Virtual Tour
Live your dreams entertaining friends and family at the magnificent Sierra Vista Estate.
At the end of a long sweeping driveway you’ll glimpse an imposing home set amongst the trees in the distance. As you drive closer the classic back-woods exterior gives only a slight hint of the elaborate decor and detailed craftsmanship within.
You’ll park under a porte-cochere large enough to shelter several vehicles from summer sun or winter snow and immediately be struck by the massive castle-sized solid mahogany and iron front door which swings open into the foyer.
From the foyer you get glimpses of endless mountain views through the floor to ceiling windows which open up onto an expansive entertainment and barbecue area… but first you’ll walk past a fossil fieldstone wood-fired pizza oven in the shape of a dragon’s mouth into the family kitchen with an open and sunny breakfast room with pass-through windows opening onto a private terrace bar.
From the kitchen you’re drawn outside through the big glass doors onto the back lawn where the view opens out past a dramatic bluff which drops down to the Truckee River and then onward to fairy-tale mountain vistas.
A wide, open, level lawn is the perfect place to host lawn games, picnics and elegant parties, and flows past the terrace with its grand outdoor fireplace, striking barbecue, bar, and hot tub.
Kids will pass endless summers exploring or joining you on hikes into the surrounding wilderness with its unique natural wildlife.
Going back inside you move naturally into the expansive living areas, where the true craftsmanship of the home is revealed. A soaring 2-story living room is accented with gorgeous iron-work chandeliers, and an enormous floor to ceiling stone fireplace which separates the living room from the large family dining room.
On the other side of the gracefully curving staircase is the family recreation room, complete with billiards and game tables, featuring beautiful windows looking out onto the western grounds of the estate.
Just beyond the grand entertaining area, two private retreats suggest an escape from busy daily lives, the first a handsome media room for watching favorite sports events and movies. Alternatively there is a private craft room which gives space for creative expression whether it be sewing, quilting, pottery or painting.
Upstairs 5 bedrooms are spread across the entire length of the home, providing complete privacy for everyone.
Each of the secondary bedrooms has a hide-away loft and two rooms near the end of the upper level also share a common game area, with a game table and shelves.
Other guest rooms flank a beautiful open hallway featuring a floor layered with rare inch and half thick figured myrtle hardwood.
The master bedroom itself is almost a private luxury retreat where you wake up to magnificent mountain views, enjoy your yoga sessions in the private yoga studio, and then soak in your luxurious bathtub looking at the treetops. Finish your morning routine with coffee on the balcony.
This estate speaks of endless magical gatherings with your family and friends, enjoying 8 acres of utterly private mountain paradise.

Mining for Gold underneath the ice 2013
Lazy gator mining crew tearin' up the state ground 2013. To bad the camera died when it did, it was just about to get interesting. ice was about 5 feet thick, then a layer of slush/ice crystals(frozen fresh water) sitting on an even colder layer of thick salt water about 2 feet. The tide went down when we were in this hole and we had to clear out caverns in the slush so that we had room to work. it was pretty darn good gold so you had to be careful not to get ahead of yourself when you really started seeing it(coarse gold will get you excited, it looks twice as big down there!), you had to make sure to take the time to clear out what was overhead so as not to get stuck. we all had some interesting regulator freeze-ups in this area, as you had to work through a maze of tunnels to get back to the hole.

Around Kansas - Kirwin National Wildlife Refuge in Phillips County - July 13, 2016
(Deb) You know Kansas is right smack dab in the middle of a lot of flight patterns and not just airplanes, but birds. And this was one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen – my daughter Noel and I were headed back from Lincoln Days in Lincoln, Kansas, and we must have been on Highway 18. So we stopped along the highway because as we were driving for 5 miles, 10 miles, we could see a flock of birds from the highway. When we got up there, they were still crossing the highway, and we pulled off into a driveway there and we watched them until we got tired of watching them. So, 15 to 20 minutes. There was no end in sight, on either horizon! I don’t know what they were, they were some little small dark bird, I’m not smart enough, I don’t know if they were starlings, or I don’t know what they were. I’ve never seen anything like that, Frank. And they were maybe 40 feet above us, 40, 50 feet above us and maybe their column was 30, 40 feet wide. And so millions of birds, millions of birds! And because Kansas is smack dab in the middle of this migratory path, we’ve got a lot of places – Cheyenne Bottoms – that are designed to help take care of that migratory bird population. But Kirwin National Wildlife Refuge in Phillips County is just spectacular. And if you’ve never been to Phillips County to see this, and Phillips County is beautiful anyway, its just this rolling countryside – its just gorgeous. But the refuge is amazing. If you’re a photographer, I’m telling you this is the place to be because everywhere you look is a photo op. Its magnificent. (Frank) …and there’s never anything going on in Kansas, right? (Deb) Nope, nope. Nothing happens here, drive on by. Kirwin National Wildlife Refuge was established to conserve, maintain, and manage wildlife and habitat for migratory birds. The nearly 11 thousand-acre Kirwin Refuge is located in the rolling hills and narrow valley of the North Fork of the Solomon River in Phillips County. The Refuge lies in an area where the tall grass prairies of the east meet the short grass plains of the west. As a result of this merging of prairies and plains, grasses and wildlife common to both habitats are found on the Refuge. Over 10,000 migrating waterfowl can be seen on the Refuge during fall through early winter. Other migratory birds, including the endangered whooping crane, can be found on the Refuge. Since the emphasis is on migratory birds, the Refuge provides food, shelter, and nesting areas for migratory birds such as grassland dependents, tree-dwelling neotropical, waterfowl and shorebirds. Depending on reservoir water levels, Refuge staff use a variety of management practices. Corn, wheat, and milo are grown through a cooperative farming program with a portion of the crop left in the field to provide food for migrating waterfowl and resident wildlife. Other management tools include grazing, brush control, haying, mowing, and controlled burning. To minimize disturbance to wildlife and to comply with Federal laws, policies and regulations, these activities are prohibited on the Refuge: camping, fires, water skiing, personal watercraft like jet skis, speed boating, swimming, collecting plants, animals, including antlers, or historical artifacts, fireworks, dogs and other pets must be on a leash, littering, disorderly conduct, intoxication and commercial use, including guiding. The list of don'ts is long because the number of birds depending on this site is so long. Respect the property and its purpose, take the kids and do some amazing bird gazing!
