This camera looks toward Mirror Lake from the Curry Village area of Yosemite Valley, at about 1,250 metres above sea level. It is useful for seeing how the valley looks right now, whether the lake is calm or ruffled, and what the light is doing on the granite walls.
About the setting
Curry Village sits on the floor of Yosemite Valley in the Sierra Nevada, surrounded by steep granite cliffs and waterfalls. Mirror Lake is a shallow pond that is best known for its reflections of Half Dome, which are strongest on still mornings and when the lake is high in spring. The valley is part of Yosemite National Park, one of the best-known protected landscapes in the United States.
What to watch for
Depending on the view, you may see the lake surface, the surrounding meadow and the cliffs as the day changes. Early morning and late afternoon usually bring the softest light and the calmest water, while spring snowmelt can make waterfalls more visible. Winter views may show snow on the ground and ice at the edges of the water.
Practical notes
Summers in the valley are warm and dry, while winters are cool and can bring snow and icy roads. Spring and autumn are popular for milder temperatures. Yosemite Valley is busy in peak season, so check road and parking conditions before you travel. Nearby cameras include Yosemite and Midpines, which can help you compare conditions across the region.
