Tenaya Creek slide in Yosemite National Park in late August 2023. The creek is fed by snowmelt and usually dries up earlier in the season, but it was still flowing due to the record high snowpack that year.

  • My family used to go camping there almost every summer during the 60s and early 70s.

    We all got so burnt there in '75. It is like a south facing reflector oven in that polished granite bowl.

    Awesome fun slide 🙌🤩 on my bucket list now Thanks for sharing 🤩🙌
  • Oh, that looks so INVITING!! I'd take along a gunnysack to do the slide; wouldn't want to rip out the seat of my swim trunks. I'd always believed that NPS had forbidden access to the Creek, from Tenaya's outlet, to where it junctions with the Merced. But if one keeps their wits about them, an occasional "outlaw" excursion can't hurt.

    sick jump there at the end bruh! strange to not see any Red Bull advertising anywhere for this
  • Tenaya Canyon, while seemingly innocuous, is and can be a death trap. While it CAN be seemingly safe at certain times of the year, certain water flows, it can also be subtly deceptive. Do not be deceived; if you get into trouble there, the YOSAR (Yosemite Search and Rescue team) can be especially difficult to come to your rescue... or recovery.

    Likely right after a rain. OK. Imagine this place without water. My friend Steve Bannon (yeah, Trump's friend) and I hiked and hung here one day in the summer of 85 when it was totally barren - devoid of any hint of water. Then a surprise bigass rain and hail storm came ripping through. Without a tent we raced around until we came upon a lean-to of a rock that kept us from getting soaked. We threw a tarp over the overhang to help, and it did, and then the rain stopped so we burst out running around hoping to find a more spacious shelter. We ran right here and were amazed at the massive slide of water rushing through here that wasn't here an hour ago before the rain. WTF? Opened up our brains some.

    In case no one figured it out...there used to be massive glaciers there, The Glaciers all melted before human caused CO2

    Well I thought they were going to start up the hill, not at the bottom, what a disappointment
  • Why do some people think others want to hear their especially shitty music?
