The altitude has nothing to do with taking your breath away
We drove up and down Tioga Pass Road several times during our week at Yosemite. It wasn't unusual to see marmots on our hikes, but to see one on the road was a little unique. This guy poses for me, oblivious to Tenaya Lake and the soaring Sierras in the background.

That view is so stunning that he too was heading up the hill to get a glimpse of the scene! :) I had never seen one of those until we went to the Tetons a few years back and he put quite a show on for us, They seem like a very social animal!
ReplyDeleteI think I like this shot the best because those foreground rocks just pull you in to the breath taking scene. Wonderful shot!
ReplyDeleteLove the rocks in the foreground and the marmot of course.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot, the backdrop is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAnd the Lord said "Let there be Light"! - and there was light, and you could see for miles and miles and miles and miles!
ReplyDeleteI think he's being paid by the Visitor's Bureau to help entertain the tourists. I'm not sure though! lol All of your vacation photos have been amazing!!
ReplyDeleteAnother knockout! Not wanting to repeat myself but it is so fabulous to tag along on your trips. I do think of you as progressively grizzled through these very high and dry spots...
ReplyDeleteStunning sights! I'm enjoying the mini vacay I'm taking! : )
