Ribbon Falls

Ribbon Falls is the uppermost free-leaping waterfall in Yosemite, and California, and North America, and one of the uppermost in the world. It plunges down the cliffs west of El Capitan, approximately opposite Bridalveil Falls, ensconced in a narrow amphitheater of its possess making that ensures it can only be seen from directly in front.

This is a distant and ephemeral falls. Its bottom is over 1500 feet above the valley floor, and it’s top more than 3000. It is most excellent seen from the Southside road just conflicting Bridalveil Falls -- there is no trail that affords a good vision. It is fed by a minute stream, and disappears soon subsequent to the last snowbanks in the valley rim forests have melted away.
