Does anyone know a source for determining when during the month of

February the "natural firefall" occurs on Horsetail Fall in Yosemite?

I've heard the light creates this "firefall" for only a few days

during the month but I can't seem to find a source to help me pin it

down. As much as I'd like the adventure, I don't think my wife would

appreciate me spending the entire month in the valley stalking an

orange waterfall. Then again, it sounds like a pretty darn good plan!

Grab a rent-a-car and head for Anza Borrego State Park in east San Diego county, (2-3 hour drive). The scenery is beautiful if your desire is desert images however there is a little bonus hidden in some of the side canyons. Near some of the palm oasis' the Desert Big Horn Sheep are very accepting of people and will almost pose for cameras. Last weekend was amazing after a short 2 mile hike. Rangers told me this has been normal behavior for a couple of herds. Do yourself a favor and get as far away from LA as ya can, as quickly as ya can.
