El Capitan

From U.S. Department of the Interior:

It’s that time of year again when visitors flock toYosemite National Park to see the famous Horsetail Fall -- the waterfall that looks like lava flowing down the side of El Capitan. This rare phenomenon only happens for a short time in February (if the conditions are perfect). When the setting sun’s rays hit the waterfall at just the right angle, it illuminates the water in brilliant reds and oranges. It’s a spectacular sight reminiscent of Yosemite’s historic Firefall!
