Yosemite National Park is located in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California, not the Rocky Mountains.

Yosemite National Park, renowned for its towering granite cliffs, giant sequoia trees, and stunning waterfalls, is situated in the Sierra Nevada mountain range of California. This makes it geographically distinct from the Rocky Mountains, which are located further east in western North America. While both ranges boast impressive natural beauty, they are separate mountain systems with unique geological formations and ecosystems.
