Yosemite National Park is a bucket-list destination for a lot of folks.

And if the park wasn’t on your list yet, it probably will be after seeing this viral TikTok video.

A woman named Michelle showed viewers the rare phenomenon she was lucky enough to witness during a trip to Yosemite.

The video’s text overlay reads, “POV: You visit Yosemite and get to witness the rare Firefall phenomenon.”

Michelle drove out of a tunnel into Yosemite National Park and directly into beautiful scenery.

The video showed snowy roads and mountains.

And Michelle then saw a waterfall off of a mountain that had an orange glow to it.

This is the Firefall phenomenon.

How beautiful!

Here’s the video.
