This is a view of Illilouette Fall from the Sierra Point viewpoint in Yosemite National Park. See our YouTube video about Sierra Point and how to get there. You can also get a similar view of this waterfall from the Mist Trail hiking from the Happy Isles Nature Center to Vernal Falls.
The canyon that this waterfall falls into runs roughly south to north and is a relatively short boulder-strewn gorge before Illilouette Creek flows into the Merced River after that river flows over Nevada and Vernal Falls. This photo was taken in June 2016 when snowmelt had swollen the creek's flow.
Remember, it's a story, not just a picture.
