    From the early 1950's, our family worshiped Yosemite as our summer home. Camping was $3 for 2 weeks. Some summers we stayed 5 weeks. We hiked lots. Merced Lake, 14 miles from Happy Isles, we did this often and camped there for several days fishing. We saw the Firefall from the Valley, and we even went atop Glacier Point several times to watch a man push the fire coals over the edge and into the Valley. Yosemite changed our lives for the better. We are in our 3rd generation of loving Yosemite. The crowds? We simply do not go where the crowds go. After all the years, we have our private picnic and swimming areas. For us, it is unchanged. It is the most majestic place in the world for our entire family. Next time, if can, we would love to see some pictures of the old Village Store with the Cowboy era wood side walks, and our favorite ice cream shop. Thanks so so much.

    Enjoyed this visit even though the smoke interfered with some of the views. I camped there in the 50’s and 60’s as a kid and enjoyed the Firefall from Camp Curry. My mother wrote a poem about the Firefall I remember to this day. Thanks for some history I didn’t know about.

    Thank you for this… being raised in Yosemite, I find these presentations interesting. A small piece of trivia that is not known by many is John Muir was not always the ‘tree hugger’ type presented. He was one of the first ‘loggers’ cutting timber in Yosemite Valley and operated an early sawmill in Yosemite in his younger years.

      You just showed why California is in such a quandary . Your in a national park and they can't even clean a historic place. Now think a all the other forests in California north to south and it's way down on the list for any debris control on top of beetle kill. We must cut down before they fall down

    Another Sunday jewel of a video. You guys certainly go "above and beyond" in your research of the history at each location. Say, I think it would be a riot if Sarah added sub captions for her 'conversation' between her and the crows, etc. Thanks again for starting my Sunday morning off in the right direction! ......Russell D.

    Thanks for another great video. Those featuring this area of the Mother Lode are always my favorites. Way back when I was in Kindergarten, my mom, sister and I stood directly behind JFK as he gave a speech upon his arrival at Castle AFB and saw him fly off to Yosemite valley on Army 1. My dad had served with Air Force 1's pilot and was able to fly on the plane down to the Fresno Airport where the President would be picked up the next day. Looking forward to videos featuring Mt. Bullion, Mariposa, Bear Valley and Indian Gulch. Prayers going up for Sarah.

    When I was a kid, my family would vacation at Yosemite every year. My last visit before moving to the pacific northwest was in 1976 with high buddies. It hasn’t changed a bit. Thanks for the excellent videos!

    I’ve been going to Yosemite over the past 48 years and there’s not much I don’t know about the park, yet you provided me some very interesting history I wasn’t aware of.And I agree with you, it would’ve been nice to have seen the Sentinel Hotel in the Valley. Thank you😊

    WOW brought back many childhood camping trips to Yosemite valley. I remember the fire from the falls it was spectacular to see. I did learn so much more about Yosemite that I didn't know. Thanks for the information.

    Great history lesson, been through there many times. To bad about all the fires out there, after seeing them down trees and tall shrubs i guess i can stop wondering why.
