  • The late afternoon sun brings out the golden color of the High Peaks in Pinnacles National Park, California. The High Peaks, some of which are nearly 2,500 feet (750 meters) tall, are partial remnants of the ancient Pinnacles volcano, shifted 190 miles north of its original location due to movement of the San Andreas Fault. Three turkey vultures are visible soaring in the sky above the saddle between two of the peaks.

  • The golden light of sunset highlights the harsh environment near the summit of the High Peaks in Pinnacles National Park, California, illustrated in part by a radically-curved tree. The High Peaks, some of which are nearly 2,500 feet (750 meters) tall, are partial remnants of the ancient Pinnacles volcano, shifted 190 miles north of its original location due to movement of the San Andreas Fault.

  • 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.

  • Viewed from near the summit of the High Peaks of Pinnacles National Park, California, a California condor (Gymnogyps californianus) soars in search of food. California condors are New World vultures that went extinct in the wild in 1987. They have gradually been reintroduced to California's coastal mountains and parts of Utah, Arizona and Baja California. However, they remain one of the rarest birds. California condors have a wingspan of up to 9.8 feet (3 meters), the longest of any North American bird.

  • These tall, narrow pillars known as The Pinnacles were formed during the cataclysmic eruption of Mount Mazama, which formed Crater Lake, Oregon. Volcanic gasses rose through layers of dacite pumice and andesite scoria in vents known as fumaroles. With temperatures of 750 degrees Fahrenheit (400 Celsius), the hot gasses welded the sides of the fumaroles. After erosion carried away the rest of the pumice and scoria, these hardened fossil fumaroles were all that remained.
