Caption: Yosemite National Park, California. Cliff and plain east of Unicorn Pass. The granite is traversed by nearly vertical zones of incipient schistosity which influence sculpture. The pass seen on the right is determined by a broader zone. On the plain are trunks of pine trees which have been brought by avalanches from a cirque on the right. 1903.
