We’re due for another minor weekend storm, which means depending on your elevation, you might be near the snow line over the next few days.

In case you were wondering what the snow line actually is, Steve Bumgardner from Yosemite Nature Notes does an excellent job of explaining the weather phenomenon’s importance to the ecosystem of Yosemite National Park … and in case you already know, just sit back and enjoy the beautiful high-def footage of Yosemite you’ve come to expect from the Nature Notes.
