Rock gardens        Images © Mark A. Chappell

Yosemite's high country offers many attractive 'rock gardens', where plants grow in small pockets of soil in cracks in rocks and boulders.   There are also many little streams that cut through rocky areas with picturesque forests.   These photos were taken along the Mist Trail and John Muir trail near Nevada Falls.
