This is one of the early views along the trail before you get down into the forest.
Yosemite Valley and Fireplace Bluffs
The narrow trail works through the area as it recovers from the Big Meadow Fire in 2009.
The view toward Yosemite Valley. El Capitan peeks above the ridge line, and Bridalveil Falls can be seen on right hand side.
Only a few steps into the trail, the scenery is already beautiful.

The Big Meadow Fire started as a prescribed burn in August 2009, but grew out of control. The damage you see in this shot is the result of that burn.
