Upper Yosemite Falls are a magnificent sight at any time of year, but especially so during late spring, during the time of maximum snow melt. They are the seventh highest in the world, or part of the third highest if the lower falls are included. The falls are visible for several miles up and down the valley - part of a two-stage drop of 2,400 feet as Yosemite Creek emerges from miles of gentle meandering across the Eagle Creek meadows in the high Alpine backcounty north of Yosemite valley and cascades over the towering granite cliffs to meet with the Merced River far below. Such is the height of the falls that the water fans out during its descent and returns to earth in a series of pulses and wind-blown spray, covering quite a large area.
