One Day in Yosemite - Yosemite Nature Notes

[@FlyingZippy]

It's an honor to have my first Yosemite hang gliding flight featured in such a great film. Glacier Point had been on my wish list for almost 20 years, and this was the perfect project to incite me!

[@mitchspurlock3626]

It blew me away! Probably the closest you could ever come to being an eagle in the garden of eden.

[@FlyingZippy]

@@mitchspurlock3626 time to learn how to hang glide... it's the ultimate expression of freedom!

[@lizmichelle4675]

This place is so beautiful, it makes me cry.

[@tylerelijahishere]

YESSSS

[@HatCreekRimPioneer]

Two thumbs up for including the hang gliding footage. Glacier Point has been flown since the 1970s and is a spectacular ride!! Decades ago a pilot and 2 passengers launched from Half Dome, the passengers parachuted from the glider!!! All ended well except for them being arrested for the illegal stunt!!

[@neomikel]

The different levels of emotion portrayed in this video are phenomenal. Thanks for sharing.

[@m.entera3196]

I've traveled to at least 30 different countries. Lived in a couple of them. Still, my favorite place on earth is Yosemite Valley. Been there at least 20 times, during all seasons, and always borders on a spiritual experience. The US National Park system was one of the best ideas we ever had.

[@katieboothe2598]

What a wonderful video of the most beautiful place on Earth. I love Yosemite!

[@gregglawless7632]

Been going to Yosemite since 1976 primarily for the hang gliding but also for the rafting, hiking and treks to the back country. Awesome video. THANKS to everyone involved.

[@hydrojedi]

It's been a decade since I was there...can't wait for our next visit. Great video!

[@shadowsnlights]

The best video of Yosemite I've seen. I was there camping in July 2012 in Tuolumne Meadows camp ground. I stayed for a week. No where close enough time to see all the park. as a photographer I was in heaven! I am going back in May when all the falls are in full run off. I will be motor cycle camping this time.

[@shadowsnlights]

A cinematic masterpiece of Yosemite National Forrest! I visited Yosemite last year with my girlfriend and camped in Tuolumne Meadows Campground. As a professional photographer and armature film maker, this film is the best I've seen of Yosemite, It inspires me to go back.

[@brucemccamish]

As a 50 yr old Tennessee photographer with a "bucket list" of doing Half Dome I found this "day in the life of Yosemite" to be inspiring and informational. Kudos to the talented 30 videographers and support staff/editors for a job well done. Your passion and love of Mother Earth shown through beautifully. Ansel would be most proud :)

[@buzz10014]

did you ever make your way up to half dome bruce?

[@vankesselable]

one of the best videos of a nat. park ever . last september i was in seqoia park. this september i'm going to Yosemite park :-). greetings from holland. the U.S.A is beautiful.

[@preciousmetalfan]

Truly remarkable place... It was THE best thing about living in Fresno. Always went up just get out of the fog.. I truly miss Yosemite!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for this program!!!!!!!!!1

[@LittleLauraBug]

we had one day in Yosemite whilst on our California road trip and just wasn't enough we were totally balled over on how beautiful Yosemite is, so we plan a full week there next year for hiking, swimming etc! And I cannot wait absolutely love it there though I did get major allergies lol I will take a course of hay fever tablets in the run up.

[@SirWellington66]

Yosemite is a beautiful place. The people make it even better. Thank you for showing me yet again, why I love Yosemite so much. For me it is a spiritual place. I must go back again and again.

[@theilluminedone7896]

I have been to sequoia as a kid and seen the redwoods along PCH but never quite made it up to Yosemite. Utterly heartbreaking. I actually cried from this. Heaven on earth or close to it.

[@cynandude]

Steve Bumgardner's Yosemite Nature Notes always impresses with with two things: the magnificent beauty of Yosemite and the artistic touch in which mister Bumgardner captures how people interact within that beauty.

[@tommybass40]

No place like Yosemite on Earth. Wife and I trekked around Yosemite for a few days and it will always be one of my most cherished memories.

[@LuckyJ247]

What a amazing video. My wife and I got married in Yosemite and absolutely love this place. Love you Erica

[@FlyingZippy]

One a subsequent trip for another Yosemite film (by PBS), my friend Jeff Shapiro and I flew our hang gliders off Glacier Point and then he married my wife and I next to the Merced River below El Capitan. Glad you liked the video, congrats on your Yosemite wedding (however long ago it was).

[@dark-jk5vw]

I been Yosemite park so many times and every time I go there there always something new to see.

[@ThatLadyBird]

Wow!!! Big thumbs up. Awesome video. keep em coming.

[@hslenn1]

Fantastic movie! Thank you for providing us with one day in the life of Yosemite!

[@jspiccioli]

One of the most beautiful and exciting places that I have ever been on Earth. The video brings back such wonderful memories of an experience that words can not describe. Thank you.

[@yuvalshapira511]

Amazing video, and the entire series is fantastic! Gotta love Yosemite.

[@tylerelijahishere]

Yes it is. I am hoping to god to go to Yosemite for my birthday!

[@calmenda]

Wow. Amazing video. I love Yosemite.

[@richarddelgado851]

This was a fabulous video. The amazing mountains and valleys and people so passionately to visit. It seems instinct within our soul that we are driven to visit and have an adventure for ourselves. What is so discovery, is that we find out the Creation we see, is bigger than we thought; and so true it is. I read in Psalm 19 that what we see in Yosemite is the work of His Fingers.

[@SFRWood]

I've been going to Yosemite almost every year for a long time now, and it never gets less than fascinating.

[@EastCoastMom08]

I would go just to see the stars. They always take my breath away. And what she said about the trees....what a beautiful place.

[@DavidLynchPersonal]

It's been many years since I went hang gliding off Glacier Point, so it was nice to watch this and relive my flight there!

[@matdd77]

Phenomenal production. I felt as thorough I was backed on the summit of half dome. Bravo!

[@PoltergeistWorks]

Maybe one day... God it's beautiful!

[@nancygorrell1817]

Revives in memory family camping trips. Thank you John Muir!

[@xHodenkobold]

Wow!! Yosemite is such an amazing place, i have never seen something beautiful like this and I hope that i can visit this place someday!

[@lesajones6446]

my parents took the family many times. Yosemite is my fav. place, i remember the firefalls, we stayed in cabins along the river at the base. i am now 56 yrs. I would love to bring my husband and spend lots of time to see everything. maybe someday soon.

[@keikspade]

thank you, Chris! much blessings and joy in this Gaia! beauty everywhere we live!

[@SBAChemistry]

Best Nature Notes yet! Absolutely beautiful. Made me look forward to returning some day. Very powerful.

[@catschai]

I can't wait to get back there ! I was there in early Feb cool and snow absolutely wonderland. looking forward to spring early summer visit. This video made me cry

[@rodrigosilveira4360]

Uau! 😍 Fiquei com mais desejo ainda de conhecer o parque! Excellent video. Now I wish more to know this awesome paraside! So many attractions, sightseeing! I'm planning to go with my wife and daughter summer 2021. From Brazil!🇧🇷

[@haltoi01]

Would love to see the same video for each of the seasons, especially winter.

[@LauraMorrowJacobs78]

Such a beautiful video. It captures the many diverse reasons to love Yosemite. Can't wait to go back! Thank you!

[@barbfarida786]

Amazing! A must-see experience, especially for those of us who long to see Yosemite but may never get to. Thank you !

[@paulrichardson6]

there was something very beautiful about the father and son climbing at the end :)

[@heliscat]

Worth the 3 hour drive every weekend. I love the strenuous hikes at elevation.

[@Christowarrior]

Phenomenal video.

[@MDWhiteDove]

Nothing quite like it. . .absolutely beautiful. . . .

[@TheFreaker86]

Dear Yosemite NP team! I've been binge watching your videos. I had no idea that you have your own KZbin channel. These videos leave me with a mixed bag of feelings: at first goosebumps while watching. next, on the one hand gratefulness to have been able to experience this place about 7,5 years ago. On the other hand some sadness that I won't be able to return anytime soon (my guess is in 4 years at the earliest when I hopefully can pay for the travel over from Europe for my whole family). Then there is the joy if the fond memories I have from my visit and the pleasant anticipation that I hopefully can and will return. Thank your for your work and sharing the experience online!

[@knut761]

What a beautiful place, thanks for sharing.

[@designbydave]

Very nice Steve! How lucky us hang glider pilots are to be able to be part of something so special [the film and the park!]

[@ianclipstone2434]

Just brilliant! Have watched it three times now.

[@bizhan]

Wonderfully said. Yosemite is definitely a place of ineffable beauty.

[@curt8806]

Excellent video.

[@NATUREmag]

This is the best video about Yosemite we have ever seen - wow - thank you very much! - Please do more like this one!

[@FrancoisPILLAS]

Super reportage qui nous montre la variété des paysages et des activités pratiquées dans ce magnifique parc

[@miekot13]

This amazing video reminded me of the amazing summer I shared with the 2012 Joie Armstrong Scholars. Thank you, Yosemite, for being the canvas for the creation of such a strong sisterhood. :)

[@Umbriaga]

stunning! words cannot express!Thank you.

[@Sheety33]

Thank you for another great video capturing the spirit of Yosemite.

[@686famous686]

[@Stampistuta]

Just awesome.

[@ianwright308]

Amazing work guys, the photography was great, so many techniques. Love the time lapse tracking, star trails and use of what looks like go pros.

[@Odin412z]

What a beautiful video! I can't wait to go back to Yosemite later this year.

[@ankit_jain]

Will be there in less than 2 weeks hopefully! Thanks for the awesome video!

[@damienhostey7804]

[@jrman413]

Thank you so much for sharing! Yosemite is amazing :)

[@lindadrummond2331]

such an awesome video, hope to visit the park soon. Number 1 on my bucket list! beautiful area

[@thatsbecauseyousuck]

It's too beautiful, I can't take it

[@sierracanon]

Ah, Steve.... you've done it again! Very enjoyable.

[@DCPowerStilts]

National parks may allow hang gliding, for example Shenandoah National park offers annual permits for launching Hang and Paragliders and from several points along skyline drive.

[@unit1262]

Can't wait to come back here next year.

[@rholder65]

that was awesome ! thanks

[@johnwwhite2]

Awesome - so many great memories here

[@ragsfan1]

Breathtaking. I miss it out there :(

[@rebeccasalazarmd]

such a special place in so many ways - you did a fine job capturing it ! congatulations : )

[@Kevins93cobra]

Awesome video as always. Your uploads always make my day. I loved the shot at 13:30. I went to a ranger's talk about the stars up at Glacier Point, and it was cool to see the valley lit up and watch the cars driving around.

[@ButternutGOLD]

This is great , l love it there! Go to clouds rest and find yourself...

[@alcestisadl1494]

Wonderful video I love the music!!!

[@JunoKuno]

Amazing video! I'm planning a trip to Yosemite for this summer

[@aloominautmusic]

this is my absolute favorite place in the world. i can never wait to go back and i hate leaving. I love california

[@wdbullseye7394]

but when it comes to taxes?

[@NaniTreas1]

@discorperted Yosemite IS in California. You gotta give Cali credit for having such awesome places. The largest trees, the tallest, and the oldest trees are all located here (in CA, not Yosemite specifically). Also, the tallest mountain in the lower 48 states, the ocean, geographic diversity, we have it all! Your state?

[@NaniTreas1]

@discorperted So how come you don't live there anymore/like CA when you know firsthand how good the weather is? That's the main reason my family still lives in CA because other states are boring, esp in the East/Midwest. How is it a private park when it's so crowded sometimes?

[@halfdome001]

Thanks you for a visually stunning experience! I hope you can do a winter "day in yosemite" too!

[@Nisabehere]

If you wont take chance..you won't see the stunning scenery..I'm going in July :))) So excited

[@professorsogol5824]

This production refers to the Ahwahnee Hotel and must predate the trademark dispute between the Park Service and Delaware North over names in the park. The hotel is now the Majestic, and most other commercial operations in the park have been forced to change their names.

[@gatesbrian2222]

Great video originally posted by Chris Maisano. Worth watching and easier than going while also being more economical.

[@PaletteOfDaisies]

iLL be there tomorrow so excited!

[@lllllllllllllllll226]

coolest video everrrrrrrrr

[@mojo888x]

This is the most amazing video I have seen on youtube. I live in Finland, but I am now going to save money to travel to Yosemite, and hopefully not get abducted by the Greys while I am there.

[@HarryBalsak]

+Wolf Miller Lake Tahoe and Sequoia National Park are close by and worth a visit too.

[@MKeller926]

Absolutely amazing!

[@mariotc21]

Love it. I hope I get to see our galaxy and beautiful stars anyone's been to half dome?

[@HB9ty3]

I hope one day I can see this wonderful place Its a dream

[@HarryBalsak]

+HB9ty3 If you do go, you MUST do the drive up to Glacier Point. You'll thank me later.

[@cboonsom]

So beautiful.

[@miraclegal55]

Great, thanks!

[@jazevox]

always want to VISIT YOSEMITE, i love nature!

[@lmspfs]

I couldn't agree with you more. Was just there last year at this very same time....

[@ExploringCalifornia]

Amazing video I want to go there again

[@retired2001]

Very beautiful!

[@joycecory]

Loved every moment

[@tarynlmead]

Nicely done. Bravo!

[@deinerhz1777]

I will like to work in the Yosemite National Park. Is one of the most important places that i love.

[@bazadata]

Wow. Wouldn't mind visiting there.

[@TheSarapedia]

Amazing miss it there. Would love to go and paint there.
