This MGM short, part of the James A. Fitzpatrick Traveltalks series, visits California's Yosemite National Park. Visually spectacular, the park boasts fish-stocked lakes, horseback riding, hiking trails, and first-class accommodations. There are many animals in the park including bears that are now so used to tourists in their midst that they are likely more dangerous than would normally be the case. The Mariposa grove of big trees, boasting trees that are up to 20 feet in diameter, is particularly interesting.
