Journal: Yosemite Falls
Yosemite Falls, one of the world's tallest, is actually made up of three separate falls: Upper Yosemite Fall (1,430 feet), the middle cascades (675 feet), and Lower Yosemite Fall (320 feet). You can see Yosemite Falls from numerous places around Yosemite Valley, especially around the Village and Lodge.

Nevada Fall
Nevada Fall is a 594-foot high waterfall on the Merced River in Yosemite. It is located below the granite dome, Liberty Cap, at the west end of Little Yosemite Valley. The waterfall is widely recognized by its "bent" shape, in which the water free-falls for roughly the first third of its length to a steep slick-rock slope.
This mid-fall impact of the water on the cliff face creates a turbulent, whitewater appearance in the falls and produces a great deal of mist which covers a wide radius, which led to its current name -Nevada is a Spanish word meaning "snowy “The Indian name was Yo-wy-we, signifying the twist or squirm of the falling water.
