Hetch Hetchy

Wapama Falls

Here's a shot of Wapama Falls, which crashes into Hetch Hetchy in a cloud of mist.

I took this from the old tribal cave on the opposite shore of the misty canyon lake. Here, the kings and queens of the ancient tribe of Moo would celebrate the life gift of water. From the sacred granite cavern, warriors would paddle out across the glassy ceremonial waters into the deep mist of the falls, where gifts would be left for the Moo God.

(OK the photo is upside down.)
