Ngokusebenzisa umbhalo onikeziwe, ngitshele ngamafuphi izinto ezikhangayo ezithandwa kakhulu e-Yosemite National Park.
Context:I-Yosemite Valley imelela iphesenti elilodwa kuphela lendawo epaki, kodwa yilapho izivakashi eziningi zifika khona futhi zihlale khona. I-Tunnel View iwumbono wokuqala weSigodi kubavakashi abaningi futhi uthwetshulwe kakhulu. I-El Capitan, idwala eliphakeme lamatshe aqinile elibonakala phezu kweYosemite Valley, ingenye yezindawo ezithandwa kakhulu zokukhuphuka emadwaleni emhlabeni ngenxa yezinhlobonhlobo zezindlela zokukhuphuka kanye nokufinyeleleka kwalo unyaka wonke. Izindonga ze-granite ezinjenge-Sentinel Dome ne-Half Dome ziphakeme ngamamitha angu-910 no-1,460 ngokulandelana, ngaphezu komhlabathi wasesigodini. Le paki inezinye izindlu eziningi ze-granite.  Izindawo eziphakeme zaseYosemite ziqukethe izindawo ezinhle ezinjengeTuolumne Meadows, iDana Meadows, iClark Range, iCathedral Range, neKuna Crest. I-Sierra crest ne-Pacific Crest Trail zidlula e-Yosemite, eneziqongo zamadwala abomvu aguquguqukayo, njengeNtaba iDana neNtaba iGibbs, kanye neziqongo zegranite, njengeNtaba iConness. INtaba iLyell iyindawo ephakeme kunazo zonke epaki, engamamitha angu - 4 000. ILyell Glacier iyinguzunga yeqhwa enkulu kunazo zonke e-Yosemite National Park futhi ingenye yezinguzunga zeqhwa ezimbalwa ezisele eSierra Nevada.  Leli paki linezihlahla ezintathu ze-sequoia enkulu yasendulo (i-Sequoiadendron giganteum); i-Mariposa Grove (izihlahla ezingama-200), i-Tuolumne Grove (izihlahla ezingama-25), kanye ne-Merced Grove (izihlahla ezingama-20). Lolu hlobo lukhula lube lukhulu kunanoma yiluphi olunye futhi lungolunye lwezinhlobo ezinde kunazo zonke futhi eziphila isikhathi eside kakhulu.  Amanzi neqhwa  UMfula iMerced ugeleza esigodini sase-Yosemite, isigodi esimise okuka-U Izinhlelo zeTuolumne neMerced River zivela ngasogwini lweSierra Nevada epaki futhi zinemihosha emifuleni eqoshwe ngamamitha ayi-910 kuya kwayi-1,220 ukujula. UMfula iTuolumne udonsa yonke ingxenye esenyakatho yepaki, indawo engamakhilomitha-skwele angaba ngu - 1 800. UMfula iMerced uqala eziqongweni eziseningizimu zepaki, ikakhulukazi iCathedral neClark Ranges, futhi udonsa indawo ecishe ibe ngamakhilomitha-skwele ayi-511 (1,320 km2).  Izinqubo ze-hydrologic, ezibandakanya ukuqhuma kweqhwa, izikhukhula, kanye nokuphendula kwe-geomorphic emifuleni, kube yinto ebalulekile ekwakheni ukwakheka komhlaba epaki. Le paki inechibi elilinganiselwa ku-3.200 (elingaphezu kwamamitha-skwele angu-100), amadamu amabili, nemifudlana engamakhilomitha angu-2.700, konke okusiza ekwakheni lezi zigodi ezimbili ezinkulu zamanzi. Izindawo ezimanzi e-Yosemite zenzeka ezansi kwezigodi kuyo yonke ipaki, futhi zivame ukuxhunyaniswa namanzi namachibi nemifula eseduze ngezikhukhula zonyaka nokunyakaza kwamanzi angaphansi komhlaba. Izindawo ezinezinsimu, ezisakazeke ezindaweni eziphakeme ngamamitha angu - 910 kuya kwangu - 3350 epaki, ngokuvamile ziyizindawo ezimanzi, njengoba kunjalo nangezindawo ezingasogwini ezitholakala osebeni lwemifudlana nemifula eminingi yaseYosemite.   I-Bridalveil Fall igeleza isuka esigodini esilenga esimise okuka-U esakhiwe yiqhwa eliseceleni. I-Yosemite idume ngokuba nezimpophoma eziningi endaweni encane. Amathambeka amaningi aqondile, izitebhisi zeqhwa nezigodi ezilengayo epaki zinikeza izindawo eziningi zokuba kube khona izimpophoma, ikakhulukazi phakathi no - April, May, no - June (isikhathi lapho iqhwa lincibilika khona). Itholakala e-Yosemite Valley, i-Yosemite Falls iphakeme kakhulu eNyakatho Melika ngamamitha angu-739. Futhi e-Yosemite Valley kukhona i-Ribbon Falls ephansi kakhulu, enokwehla okuphakeme kakhulu, amamitha angu - 491. Mhlawumbe i-waterfall evelele kunazo zonke e-Yosemite Valley yi-Bridalveil Fall, okuyi-waterfall ebonakala endaweni yokubuka iTunnel View empumalanga ye-Wawona Tunnel. IWapama Falls eseHetch Hetchy Valley ingenye impophoma ephawulekayo. Amakhulu ezimpophoma zesikhashana angase abe khona epaki ngemva kwemvula enamandla noma ukuncibilika kweqhwa.  Zonke izinguzunga zeqhwa ezisepaki ziyizinguzunga zeqhwa ezincane ezihlala ezindaweni ezihlala emthunzini, njengama-cirques abheke enyakatho nasenyakatho-mpumalanga. I-Lyell Glacier iyisiqhwa esikhulu kunazo zonke e-Yosemite (i-Palisades Glaciers iyona enkulu kunazo zonke eSierra Nevada) futhi ihlanganisa amahektha angu-160 (65 ha). Ayikho neyodwa yezinguzunga zeqhwa zaseYosemite eyinsalela yezinguzunga zeqhwa zasezintabeni ze-Ice Age ezaba nesandla ekubumbeni indawo yaseYosemite. Kunalokho, zakhiwa phakathi kwesinye seziqephu ze-neoglacial ezenzeka kusukela ekuncibilikeni kwe-Ice Age (njenge-Little Ice Age). Izinguzunga zeqhwa eziningi zaseYosemite, njengeBlack Mountain Glacier eyatholwa ngo-1871 futhi yanyamalala phakathi nawo-1980, seziphelile. Izinguzunga zeqhwa ezimbili zokugcina zaseYosemite <unk> izinguzunga zeqhwa iLyell neMaclure <unk> ziye zahlehla eminyakeni eyikhulu edlule futhi ososayensi balindele ukuba ekugcineni zinyamalale ngenxa yokuncibilika kwemvelo nokuguquka kwesimo sezulu.
Nakuba i-Yosemite National Park mhlawumbe yaziwa kakhulu ngezinto ezikhangayo ezise-Yosemite Valley engamakhilomitha-skwele ayisikhombisa, le paki inkulu kakhulu futhi inezinto ezikhangayo ezithandwayo ezisukela emahlathini ama-sequoias amakhulu, kuya ezinguzungeni zeqhwa nezimpophoma, kuya ezinqabeni eziningi zegranite. Ikakhulukazi izigodlo zegranite zidonsela izigidi zezivakashi unyaka ngamunye, eziningi zizama ukuzikhuphukela noma zibukele ezinye zikhuphuka. Ezimbili ezidume kakhulu yi - El Capitan ne - Half Dome.
