Balconies Cave, Pinnacles National Park, California

Light shines into a section of the Balconies Cave, a talus cave in Pinnacles National Park, California. The park's high peaks are partial remnants of the ancient Pinnacles volcano, shifted 190 miles north of its original location due to movement of the San Andreas Fault. Talus caves, like Balconies Cave, are narrow passages in the piles of large rocks that have broke off and landed at the base of the peaks.
