Every February, Yosemite's Horsetail Fall turns into a "firefall " (Credit: Scfry -own work/ Public Domain/ Wikimedia.org)

California's Yosemite National Park is known for its ancient giant sequoia trees and massive rock formations. These include El Capitan and Half Dome. However, from mid-to-late February, the park's main draw is the Horsetail Fall. Under the right conditions, this winter waterfall, takes on a fiery orange glow. This makes it look like lava flowing down El Capitan, giving it the name "firefall."
