Yosemite is a scenic mountain region in central California. It was set aside as a state park in 1864 and, together with additional surrounding territory, made a national park in 1890. Yosemite National park encompasses 761,320 acres of the Sierra Nevada Range, including the Yosemite Valley, and features giant sequoia groves with trees thousands of years old. Yosemite Valley alone has a number of attractions, such as sheer rock walls, Yosemite Falls, and huge domes and peaks. Yosemite falls is near Yosemite Village on the floor of the valley. It was formed by creeks tumbling into Yosemite Valley over the edges of hanging tributary valleys. Winter sports in Yosemite center around the oldest operating Ski area in California at Badger Pass. The parks animal life includes mule deer, various squirrels, chipmunks, and black bears. At the level of Yosemite Valley grow larger stands of conifers; higher up, closer to the tree line in Yosemite, are mountain hemlock and lodge pole pine. Find homes for sale in Oakhurst California
