Yosemite Falls rainbow in April 2027

Short answer: On 15 April 2027: Best rainbow from Lower Yosemite Fall footbridge, 07:50–11:10 and 14:55–18:20 (strongest around 08:15), if the sun is out. Every day of April is in the table. Water level in April: low.

Lower Yosemite Fall throws a wide spray over the footbridge at its base in spring. Valley walls hide the low sun, so rainbows need the sun well up and behind you.
