Waterfalls by the hundreds!

John Muir once went out after a rain and began counting waterfalls on the walls of Yosemite Valley; He stopped counting when he reached one hundred.
Last night before the light faded completely, I took a drive around the valley and saw LOTS of waterfalls. Horsetail Falls was slamming, with a copycat fall to the west, and lots of ephemeral falls around the corner to the east, facing the Manure Pile. Sentinel Falls are flowing heavy, and there’s another fall to the east of Sentinel Rock. Royal Arches Cascades have multiplied–I saw three distinct falls.
Just now I went out of my trailer and saw Yosemite Falls in full, roaring glory–and a rather large falls to the left of it, at the point of the corner south and west. About to go for another drive before work. Taking my camera, but after last night’s dreadful images, I doubt I’ll get any stunners. The light is weak and flat, and everything is grey.
Stay tuned for more reports.
