This postcard shows Yosemite Valley’s Nevada Falls, where a river rushes off a cliff dissolving into a large plume of spray before landing in the valley below. Pine trees stand int he foreground, as well as on the top of the cliff.
The image of the falls appears to have been glued onto the front of a different postcard.
Comments and Context
In Charles C. Myers’s own words, “Next we pass the Nevada Falls where the great volumn [sic] of water comes down 600 ft in a compound curve and with a roar that can be heard many miles.”
