Short answer: On 15 June 2027: Golden then red light on Half Dome from about 20:00 until last light at 20:32. Be at Sentinel Bridge or Glacier Point by 19:30. Every day of June is in the table.

Half Dome's sheer north-west face glows orange and pink at sunset, reflected in the Merced River at Sentinel Bridge. The face only gets the evening sun from spring to autumn, when the sun sets far enough north.
