I am glad the narrator, a Henry Fonda soundalike (Peter Coyote), pronounced Tuolumne Meadows. It is "two-all-um-ee." The "n" is silent. I would never have known how to say that thing. I didn't when I visited Yosemite three years ago.
One goal I have in life, but at this point seems remote, is to visit each and every national park in the United States. So far I have visited nine of them: Redwoods, Crater Lake, Yosemite, Lassen, Grand Canyon, Petrified Forest, Zion, Bryce Canyon, and Great Basin.
The national parks and monuments are so great.
