Overview:
The beautiful Yosemite park fits right into the definition of a taiga. It has gorgeous coniferous trees that peek as high as the clouds. It also has the magnificent wildlife found only in the taiga. The rainfall is quite heavy through out the year but it can still be pretty and warm. The rain helps this beautiful biome continue to expand and be beautiful. The Yosemite can also get very cold though, with lots of alluring snowfall that's like nothing you've ever seen before. Yosemite national park is one of the most obvious examples of the taiga biome and is deffidently a park that all should visit at least once.
