The clue is a famous Yosemite landmark, and there are a lot of them. Coming from the NYT Mini Crossword dated January 20, 2025. We need to find a landmark that has five letters for the downward section. There are a lot of landmarks in Yosemite National Park, but none of them are just made up of five letters.
Which famous Yosemite landmark are we talking about
The landmark in question is the El Capitan. However, the answer for the clue is ELCAP, which means El Cap which is short for the El Capitan. The El Cap is a giant monolith which looks like a mountain. It’s a natural rock that stretches up to 3,000 feet. That’s right, it’s not a mountain but a giant rock.
It’s a beloved site, and you can’t help but marvel at its existence. How can a rock be this big when most rocks you can just pick up and throw? Other notable Yosemite landmarks which didn’t make the cut are Glacier Point, Half Dome, and the ever popular Yosemite Falls.
