Almost Gold At Horsetail Falls Yosemite

I realize this is way off topic and will probably disappear soon, but have any of our members seen it when it`s on fire? Apparently in 2020 if all conditions are exactly right it will be visible at sunset from 19th to 22nd February for about 10 minutes.   
Sorry Steve, but did you notice how I worked "gold" into the title? 🙂

I hope this stays. I had never heard of it. It looks like an amazing special effect, or pouring slag, which I have seen many times and is also very cool.

I have never seen it because I didn't know about it until now. Thanks it gives me a reason to go to Yosemite.

Google "firefalls" in Yosemite. The oldtimers used to light a big fire on the top of a mountain and push it over the edge. It sure would have been a site to see. These days you can't even hardly have a bonfire due to the extreme fire hazards. Mostly due to poor forest management policies in California.
