Yosemite Valley

Flying back from Ventura, CA we had a perfect view of Yosemite Valley from 30k ft. On your lower left is the famous prow of El Capitan. Yosemite Falls just out of view on the same side of the valley, followed by the expanse of granite slabs of Royal Arches and then Washington Column. Across the other side of the valley the monolith reaching high above the valley floor is Half Dome. Coming back towards us are the Cathedral Towers and then the Sentinel. Lots of rock out there and a lot of wilderness too. Beautiful.
