Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

YOSEMITE,NATIONAL PARK, CALIFORNIA

Yosemite is not home to one waterfall or two or three, but many.  Several waterfalls ranging from 300 feet to nearly 2500 feet plummet from gigantic rock formations. Other waterfalls consist of cascading falls ranging from 50 feet to 500 feet.







The falls can be viewed from roadside pull-offs, hiking trails, and wheelchair accessible walkways.  Peak flow for the waterfalls is late spring, usually May and June.  Water flow slows to a trickle by August; however, late fall rains regenerate the waterfalls.
