Tunnel illuminated by flashlight, Inspiration Point, Yosemite National Park, California
If it seems like someone is going to jump out of this image and yell ‘boo,’ then we picked the right picture for the eve of Halloween. It was photographed near the Inspiration Point trailhead at Yosemite National Park, where adventurous explorers can discover all kinds of interesting scenes off the beaten path. Above ground, the park in California serves up views that are much more fitting of the name Inspiration Point. The area is home to iconic rock formations like El Capitan and the Half Dome, and it’s known for an abundance of waterfalls. Since it’s almost Halloween, we’ll share that Yosemite means ‘killer’ in the language of the Miwok, the indigenous people who once lived here. Let’s just pretend this refers to killer views.
