Facing west from Sentinel Dome to Yosemite Valley and El Capitan
Facing west from Sentinel Dome at sunset
The chasm opening up before you here is Yosemite Valley, framed by Cathedral Rocks on the left and El Capitan on the right. If you could proceed from here directly along the center line of the valley without swerving, you'd reach the marina district of San Francisco in about 150 miles.
