California's Gold with Huell Howser

Firefall

Season 7 Episode 706

A shout echos through Yosemite… “Let the Fire fall,” and from 1872 to 1969 that’s just what happened. Join Huell atop Glacier Point with Nic Fiore, who was the last to push a pile of burning embers off the edge, creating the beautiful red hot “waterfall” effect know as Firefall. Then down to the bottom at Camp Curry, the best spot to view Firefall, where Huell talks with Keith and Ginny Bee.

*Streaming until 9/4/2023.
