Hike to Indian Rock, Yosemite National Park, California
Indian Rock is a unique granite arch found near the trail to North Dome. As the granite was slowly uplifted over time, cracks formed which allowed erosive forces, like ice wedging, to do their work. During winter, freezing temperatures caused the water in the tiny cracks to freeze and expand, eventually breaking pieces of rock away. Indian Rock used to be one solid boulder and has been transformed into this beautiful arch!If you visit Indian Rock, remember natural processes took a very long time to form this beautiful, fragile rock feature. Leave it how you found it, treat it with respect, and don't climb on it.
