Remember what I said a while back about not deserving God's Grace in the form of natural Beauty? Observe my trip to Yosemite this past weekend:
The water from these falls are from snowmelt. Therefore it is just above freezing. If you think about it, evaporational cooling will make the water even cooler than that. I walked up the trail to see the lower fall (not visible here) and was astounded by the cool mist, and the etherial beauty.
People (they must be jerks), actually climb this mountain (El Cap). It's about 4000 feet tall, and the ground level is about 4000 feet above sea-level. So we're talking about some serious oxygen depletion, coupled with a two-day climb up a vertical rock face. They're nuts!
