Overlooking the north side of Half Dome from Olmsted Point.

Olmsted Point, located in Yosemite National Park, is a viewing area off of the Tioga Road which, like Glacier Point, offers a view into Yosemite Valley. This view looks southwest into the valley, giving, in particular, a view of the northern side of Half Dome and a view of Tenaya Lake to the east.

The site is named after landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted.
