Round Trip from San Francisco, Oakland & Pleasanton.
Bridalveil Fall
The Ahwahneechee called this place Pohono, "Sprit of the Puffing
Wind." The wind swirls about the cliff, often lifting the falling
water and blowing it from side to side in delicate free-fall. It is 62
story high.

"How glorious a greeting the sun gives the mountains!
