Best Places to See/Photograph El Capitan

Honestly, it’s hard to pick a best place to view “El Cap”. Due to its size, it’s part of many of Yosemite’s iconic views. Here are just a few.

Bridalveil Straight – As you drive into Yosemite Valley and you see El Capitan on the left, there are long pull-outs on both sides of the road for people to stop and admire the view. Please be considerate of other drivers and pull completely off the road. See if you can spot the heart on El Capitan where the granite features resemble a heart in the middle of the granite cliff. This is also a great angle to see Bridalveil Fall from fairly close, hence the name.

Tunnel View – Head south on Hwy 41 toward Glacier Point, or Wawona, to climb a short distance off the valley floor to see one of the must-stop vantage points in Yosemite, Tunnel View. El Capitan is unmistakable as the giant rock formation on the left. It’s also a great view of Bridalveil Fall on the right and Half Dome way in the back.

El Cap Meadow – On your way back out of the valley, the road passes right in front of the base of El Capitan at El Cap Straight, and there is a pull-out on the left side of the road so that you can stop and take a look from up close. This is a great place to watch climbers in action, though they can be hard to spot because many people misjudge the massive scale of El Cap

Note: El Capitan meadow is currently under restoration, so please look from one of the viewing areas close to the road, or if you want to walk back into the meadow, use the trail on the eastern edge, close to the river and avoid trampling the center of the meadow where it is most sensitive to impact.

El Capitan’s Firefall Light Show

In mid- to late-February, El Capitan is home to a now-famous light show of Horsetail Fall, sometimes simply called “the Firefall” or “the Horsetail Firefall”. Hundreds of people have come from all over in hopes of seeing this small ephemeral fall on El Capitan’s eastern flank turn molten gold with the setting sun.

Three things need to come together for a spectacular firefall.

• The angle of the sun. During the last part of February, the angle of the sun is perfect so that if you are standing at the El Capitan Picnic Area, the light of the setting sun shines through the water turning the falls a golden red.
• Water in Horsetail Fall. Horsetail Fall is an ephemeral fall meaning that it can dry up if there isn’t enough melting snow above the fall to produce a waterfall. That means that in dry years, there may simply not be enough water in Horsetail Fall to catch the light of the evening sun.
• Clear evening. If clouds block the sun, the effect is shrouded. Though if the forecast is for clouds it may still be worth a look because a break in the clouds can lead to the most magical and unique photographs.
