Video - A Time Lapse Tour of Yosemite

Larry Ferlazzo's recent post about a Yosemite Park slideshow reminded me of some neat videos that I came across a couple of weeks ago. Henry Juh Wah Lee has produced a nice collection of videos of Yosemite and other national parks he has visited. Embedded below is a time lapse tour of Yosemite.

Last year Ken Burns released a new series all about the US National Parks. While the full episodes aren't online, PBS Video does host a collection of ten clips from the series. The longest of those is an eleven minute segment about Teddy Roosevelt and John Muir camping in Yosemite. If you choose to use this clip or others from the series in your classroom, check out the National Parks Digital Story Telling Modules.

Another good place to find videos of the National Parks is The Travel Film Archive (my review of it here).
