Special Features: This unique geologic area became a landmark in 1843 for California-bound emigrants. They left wagon ruts across the landscape and their signatures in axle grease on Register Rock, Camp Rock and many others. Among the scenic granite spires and sculptured rock formations that dominate this landscape, a few pinnacles and monoliths are in excess of sixty stories tall and 2.5 billion years old. The smooth granite faces offer exceptional rock climbing and more than 500 climbing routes have been identified. Remnants of the California National Historic Trail are still visible in the area (see separate entry in national trails section).
