Description

Half Dome is a granite peak at the eastern end of Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park, California. It is a well-known rock formation in the park, named for its distinct shape. One side is a sheer face while the other three sides are smooth and round, making it appear like a dome cut in half. The granite crest rises more than 4,737 ft above the valley floor. In this photograph, Half Dome towers in the right center background of the photograph while a calm stream and a variety of trees support it in the foreground.
