This happens every year and photographers come from all over to photograph it. It's the early morning sunlight on the waterfall makes it look like it is on fire. It's not.
@@moneymanifestation9505 There have been pictures of it for years and there’s a lot of history behind it. I saw it two days ago and it’s definitely not fake
Technically not every year, there’re conditions required. Like in 2020, the winter of 2019 did not drop much snow thus the Horsetail was completely dry. if somebody showed you a firefall pic of 2020, that will be fake! Otherwise, it’s indeed an annual Yosemite must-see phenomenon.
Incredible , looks like lava flowing down. Reminiscent of an ancient time as Yosemite was forming. Very spiritual feeling, i bet the native americans revered it as a sacred time of the year. Really cool
Absolutely stunning, have you heard of the lion carved into the mountain for the swedish soldiers who died during the french revolution? Look it up its a stunning piece of art that sits behind a pond
Amazing. Hope to see it. So was the 50s firefall where they made a fire on the top and pushed it over,... well I guess it must have been to try to recreate the February sunset firefall year around. When did they stop the fire based one?
Made my reservations for this..I just moved to Cali and everyone just keeps telling me how beautiful yosemite is. From what I read it happens every year around this time. Another beautiful scenery would be the northern lights in Alaska

It’s not a phenomenon, it’s magma flowing behind it. It’s always flowing behind it, but at certain times of the year it flows nearer to the surface. That’s what give it that “mysterious” orange glow. This has been going on for decades. People believe anything you tell them.
Back in the '60's there was a real FireFall where all the trash trees and such was burned and in the evening they would push the smoldering embers over the cliff. Saw it once in Boy Scouts, then someone thought it anti environment or something and cancelled the tradition. No fun allowed.
I remember. I saw it many times as a child who went with his family to Yosemite yearly. I thought it was over and done. We also were allowed to gather firewood in designated areas to help keep the forest floor or understory free of fire potential.
a long time ago they used to do this using real fire... stopped it once they figured out it was a wildfire danger... didn't know there was a natural phenomenon as well... nice post...thanks...
In the summer, no water flow, they would build a huge bonfire all day long and push the ashes over the cliff with a tractor. An evening highlight in the park. Enviromentalists shut it down.
I knew an Elderly Woman in the 1990's, that always talked about seeing that in the 1940's. I always asked Her if that seemed natural, it even seemed weird to Me, that they would do something like that in a forrest.
Yosemite park has the highest number of people that vanish out of any other park in in the world- I’m not talking about people that fall or get lost - these are people that leave zero trace behind them and disappear of the planet. Look up David Paulidis and his series of the Missing 411.
My brother and I have a video on UA-cam that explains why this happens. We've been going to Yosemite to see this for over 12 years. The video is called "Yosemite Firefall and El Capitan's Nose" and is at: ua-cam.com/video/KmX-lleVZ4Q/v-deo.html This phenomenon happens due to four factors: clear skies in the west, water in Horsetail Fall, the geographic shape of El Capitan and its "nose", and the angle of the setting sun (which happens the last two weeks of October, as well). We call this a "firefall effect" rather than a firefall because it doesn't involve a bonfire like the original did. It was discontinued in the late 1960's because people were trampling meadows, there were traffic jams, and the head ranger decided Yosemite should only have natural events for people to watch, rather than a human-produced spectacle.
When I was a little girl in the 1950s he used to go and watch the firefall in Yosemite every year but there was a natural one and then they would also do one that wasn't natural and he actually somehow I don't know who fire over the waterfall they don't do it anymore
I remember the actual fire fall when they pushed burning embers over the fall. I thought it was magic. I was pretty little (maybe five?) but I've never forgotten it.
I've always wanted to go to Yosemite, but it's just so far away. All the stuff out west is far away, not only from me, but from each other. East of the Mississippi, everything is much closer. But then the stuff out west is also more incredible. So there's that. Mount Rushmore is another one.
@@carolynklenk8467 I could say ... silly questions (answer is in the video) , misspelling(sarcasmism-?) and use of double-!! (are you screaming?) are sure signs of flawed character. But I won't, that would be sarcastic of me. ; )
Saw the Firefall yesterday. Even with the limited capacity, it was still enough to be a super spreader event. There were people wearing proper masks, but a lot of really dumb people out there who decided to take off their mask to shout, people wearing gator guards (which should be illegal at this point), and people running and biking through crowds not wearing a mask. I took my parents, who are both in their 60s, to see it for the first time, but we had to leave the fall a bit early to beat the rush back to the parking lot. It was the right choice, because as we drove toward the park exit, our car was surrounded by a sea of people. It looked like a protest event. It's no wonder why we are still in a pandemic.
Your paranoia about masks is also dangerous to your health. Also calling your neighbors dumb because they don’t behave the way you want them to is also a mental poison. Your mental health and physical health are directly connected.
Actually , your paranoia is far scarier than the "big bad virus". If you are so afraid then stay home in and hide. The rest of us will take a chance and live our lives. Lot's of stuff out there that is looking to kill ya! Corona is just one of many. Don't let it rule your life., none of us make it out alive.
@@benjaminharold5154 I obviously went to see the firefall, so I'm not afraid to go out. Just because I'm trying to protect my senior parents from careless people doesn't make me paranoid or afraid. It means I care more than the others like yourself who only want to harm people like my parents.
