Horsetail Falls

Horsetail Fall, situated in Yosemite National Park in California, is a seasonal waterfall that flows in the winter and near the beginning spring. The drop occurs on the East side of El Capitan. There are a few days each February where this fall is lit up by the setting sun and reflects a intense orange.

This waterfall descends in two streams side by side, the eastern one being the better, but both moderately small. The eastern one drops 1,500 feet and the western one 1,600 feet, the uppermost fully-airborne waterfall in Yosemite that runs at a number of points every year. The waters then meet and go down another 500 feet on steep slabs, so the total tallness of these waterfalls is 2,100 feet.
