  1. East Face of the Sierra Nevada Range along the June Lake Loop. The clouds were moving fast the morning I shot this one, but the rocks were better behaved.

  2. Shot from near the base of Panum Crater, the South Tufa is in the foreground.

  3. From Negit Island in Mono Lake (at left) to the eastern edge of Long Valley Caldera (at right) stretches the arcuate chain of rhyolite domes and craters that make up the Mono-Inyo Craters. Active as recently as 750 years ago, this chain of volcanic vents is thought to rise from a single(?) feeder dike emplaced along t...

  4. Here one can see pumice from the Long Valley Caldera forming eruption deposited atop glacial till. Look closely for the changes in vegetation along the face of the roadcut.

  5. The Owens River Gorge cuts down through the Bishop Tuff, exposing a cross section throught the 760,000 year old pyroclastic deposit that is unparalleled. This GigaPan was shot near the middle point of the Gorge. Cooling features can be seen along the walls of the Gorge.

  6. This roacdut exposes a Quaternary large boulder conglomerate beside Lone Pine Creek in the Alabama Hills. Most of the clasts are boulders of granitoids of the Mount Whitney Intrusive Suite.

  7. Taken from the middle of the Owens Valley near Manzanar.

  8. Incised down into the alluvial fan between the Sierra Nevada front and the Alabama Hills, this portion of Lone Pine Creek caught my eye for the beautiful flowers (lupines?) blooming in the floodplain.

  9. East face of the Sierra Nevada Range from west of the Alabama Hills along Whitney Portal Road.

  10. The distant Sierra Nevada Range looms above the rounded Alabama Hills. This location has been a favorite for filming Hollywood Westerns over the years.
