Hotels and other buildings in Yosemite have come and gone during the first 100 years. I have published a number of posts on the subject. In this post offer links to those posts so they may be easily revisited.
The Yosemite of Yesteryear – Part 4 – Glacier Point Hotel & More
Originally, Yosemite was visited by arriving on horseback or (later) by stagecoach. This series of posts reveals details of the early buildings in and around the valley; where they were, who ran them, what was around them. In this post I’ll discuss the Mirror Lake House, the old Glacier Point Hotel, the Lodge at the Falls, and the Ahwahnee.
More Posts at Yosemite Tales Coming Soon
I have been working on a number of tales and they are all in various states of incompleteness. The subject matters of these posts, for the most part, are very much intertwined with each other. As I unveil a fact for one tale, it reveals issues with another. Additionally, I really need to get back to Yosemite to pick up more information. So, while I continue to work on these details, I’ll share with you some “previews” of what those tales are.
About This Site
Hello, my name is Jeff Kreider. I snapped my first photograph in Yosemite December 24, 1979. Over the years it has become a passion. It is hard NOT to get inspired by the beauty of this park. This park is more than mere scenic opportunities; it is a virtual wonderland wrought by yesteryear. It is my goal to use this site to share, not only my experiences and photos, but also some of its history and the tales of those who forged it.Recent Posts
