In the Footsteps of Giants

After 10km of hiking through Paradise Valley -- a valley that truly lives up to its name, particularly in autumn, we reached the Giant Steps. This waterfall is breathtaking at any time of year, but the light frosting of snow and golden trees on the distant mountains made it even moreso. Even after two hours -- the most we could spare on our hike, since we still had Sentinel Pass to conquer -- we only saw a small portion of this area. I know which hike will be the top of my to-do list next summer!
