308 US - Yosemite National Park (1984)

Brief Description

"Yosemite National Park lies in the heart of California. With its 'hanging' valleys, many waterfalls, cirque lakes, polished domes, moraines and U-shaped valleys, it provides an excellent overview of all kinds of granite relief fashioned by glaciation. At 600–4,000 m, a great variety of flora and fauna can also be found here."

约塞米特蒂国家公园
"约塞米特蒂国家公园位于加利福尼亚中部,该公园给我们展示着世上罕见的由冰川作用而成的大量花岗岩形态,包括“悬空”山谷、瀑布群、冰斗湖、冰穹丘、冰碛以及U型山谷。在约塞米特蒂国家公园海拔600米至4000米的区域内,我们还可以找到各种各样的动植物。"
