More specifically, it refers to an area defined on the east by the Cascade Range, Sierra Nevada and Mojave Desert, and on the west by the Pacific Ocean. The U.S. Census groups the five states of California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Hawaii together as the Pacific States division.

The granite monolith is about 3,000 feet from base to summit along its tallest face, and is a popular location for rock climbers. The formation was named El Capitan by the Mariposa Battalion when they explored the valley in 1851. El Capitan was taken to be a loose Spanish translation of the local Native American name for the cliff, variously transcribed as To-to-kon oo-lah or To-tock-ah-noo-lah . It is unclear if the Native American name referred to a specific tribal chief or simply meant the chief or rock chief.The top of El Capitan can be reached by hiking out of Yosemite Valley on the trail next to Yosemite Falls, then proceeding west. For climbers, the ...

Like its upstream neighbor, Vernal Fall is clearly visible at a distance, from Glacier Point, as well as close up, along the Mist Trail.

The oldest public Japanese garden in the United States, this complex of many paths, ponds and a teahouse features plants and trees pruned and arranged in a Japanese style. The garden's 3 acres contain sculptures and structures influenced by Buddhist and Shinto religious beliefs, as well as many elements of water and rocks to create a calming landscape designed to slow people down.

11. Taft Point Yosemite National Park
Taft Point is a viewpoint in Yosemite National Park, west of Glacier Point. It offers wide views of Yosemite Valley, Yosemite Falls, and El Capitan. However, the main attraction of Taft Point are the giant fissures in the mile high granite rock. The fissures are breaks and cracks in the mountain that drop directly down to the valley floor at some points. The point is named after 27th President of the United States William Howard Taft, who, according to newspaper accounts, came across the point when he visited Yosemite for three days hosted by John Muir in October 1909. The two hiked from nearby Glacier Point down to the valley floor. President Taft planned the trip by horseback, but the horses brought for his use were all too small for his 300 plus pounds.

Top 10 Best Cities to Live in the USA in 2019 - Live, Retire and Raise a family

Americans are mobile people. In fact, the U.S. Census reports that about one in six Americans move each year.
Though most moves are local, nearly one-sixth of all people who move change states.
Finding the home that is right for you largely comes down to personal preferences,
and the cities in this country have such varying characteristics that it can be a daunting task to narrow your search down to just one.
However, taking a broad view of the cities and investigating the characteristics that will affect your life on a daily basis can help you narrow it down.
When deciding where to put down roots, many factors are in the eye of the beholder, such as climate, politics, or proximity to extended family.
Other aspects are coveted by nearly everybody: affordable housing, access to well-paying jobs, a low cost of living, good schools, and quality healthcare.
Below, check out the top 10 most livable cities of 2019 and why residents love living there:
1. Denver, Colorado. (Best place for young professionals, finding a job)
2. Austin, Texas.
3. Arlington, Virginia. (best for raising a family)
4. San Diego, California.
5. Scottsdale, Arizona. (best city to retire in America)
6. Seattle, Washington.
7. Portland, Oregon.
8. Ann Arbor, Michigan. (best for raising a family)
9. San Francisco, California.
10. Raleigh, North Carolina.
