Question: What is the name of the granite dome at the eastern end of Yosemite Valley, where areas were burnt due to the Meadow Fire?

Nevada Fall is a 594 ft high waterfall on the Merced River in Yosemite National Park, California.  It is located below the granite dome, Liberty Cap, at the west end of Little Yosemite Valley.  The waterfall is widely recognized by its "bent" shape, in which the water free-falls for roughly the first third of its length to a steep slick-rock slope.  This mid-fall impact of the water on the cliff face creates a turbulent, whitewater appearance in the falls and produces a great deal of mist which covers a wide radius, which led to its current name ("Nevada" is an old Spanish word meaning "snowy"). <SEP> The Yosemite Valley Railroad (YVRR) was a short-line railroad operating from 1907 to 1945 in the state of California, mostly following the Merced River from Merced to Yosemite National Park, carrying a mixture of passenger and freight traffic.  Contrary to the name of the railroad, rail service did not extend to Yosemite Valley itself, but rather ended at the park boundary as the construction of railroads is prohibited in the National Parks.  Passengers would disembark at the park boundary in El Portal, CA and take a stage coach, and starting in 1913 a motor coach, to Yosemite Valley itself.  With closure of the Yosemite Sugar Pine Lumber Company in 1942 and the sale of the Yosemite Portland Cement Company to the Henry J. Kaiser Company and subsequent suspension of all operations in 1944 led to a loss of most of the freight track on the railroad.  This in addition to the increased competition for passengers from use along the Yosemite All-Year Highway (now designated as California State Route 140), both commercial and private, and the substantial decrease of recreational passenger traffic because of World War II led to the downfall of the railroad.  The last regularly scheduled train ran on August 24, 1945. <SEP>  Park officials believe it was started near Starr King Lake, during a lightning storm, on July 19, 2014.  On Sunday, September 7, 2014 the fire forced authorities to order the evacuation by helicopter of dozens of hikers and tourists.  On September 16, 2014 the fire burned 4971 acre and was 80% contained.  On September 18, the containment of the Meadow Fire increased to 85%, without having expanded further.  During the next 4 days, firefighters were able to make significant progress on extinguishing the fire, especially with the 0.25 inches of rainfall during the weekend, and by September 22, the containment of the Meadow Fire had increased to 98%. The Meadow Fire was a wildfire which burned areas near Half Dome in Yosemite National Park, California.  From September 25 to 26, the containment of the wildfire still remained at 98%, despite some snow and rain falling in the region.  On September 27, an additional inch of precipitation helped quench the wildfire, and on September 29, the Meadow Fire was 100% contained.  No injuries or fatalities were reported. <SEP>  It is a well-known rock formation in the park, named for its distinct shape.  One side is a sheer face while the other three sides are smooth and round, making it appear like a dome cut in half. Half Dome is a granite dome at the eastern end of Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park, California.  The granite crest rises more than 4737 ft above the valley floor.
