#SierraNevada “rivers are expected to hit their spring peak flows in the coming days. The #MercedRiver at Pohono Bridge and the #TuolumneRiver at #HetchHetchy, both in #Yosemite National Park, are forecast to reach maximum flow on Sunday.” https://www.sfchronicle.com/weather/article/snow-melt-california-yosemite-rivers-waterfalls-20313621.php
It’s pretty amazing to see #Yosemite across the Central Valley from the Bay Area. #HetchHetchy and #CampMather are somewhere near the left edge of this image. https://mastodon.social/@midendian/113982722382740840
Airborne shot looking South on a medical transport. Dumbarton Bridge, the old Hetch Hetchy pumping station and cassion, the old rail bridge with Moffett Field and the South Bay in the distance #bridge #HetchHetchy #Southbay #landscape #photography #SanFranciscoBay
This was a few minutes later during the same sunset. I shot this with iPhone 15. No special settings. No filter. No editing. The shock of orange was absolutely stunning!

Today’s episode of Lost in the Sands of Time is sponsored by #HetchHetchy. Hailing from Athans, GA and comprised of Lynda Stipe (Michael Stipes sister) and various musicians from their first album in 1988 until the demise in the early 90s. Enjoy!

Where San Francisco's water supply comes from (it's delicious!)

Hetch-Hetchy reservoir in the northwestern part of Yosemite National Park. It's gorgeous and has far fewer people than the mainstream Yosemite areas.
