Horsetail Fall will be flowing on the eastern edge of El Capitan beginning on or around February 10th and it could last until February 28th. Visitors can catch the annual event from mid-to-late February at sunset when the orange glow of the water gives off the appearance of lava flowing from the mountain.

Due to the popularity of the event, you can expect restrictions from noon to 7 pm. Those include traffic closures and areas that will be closed to the public during the dates of Feb. 10 - 28.
