 TAHOE YOSEMITE TRAIL

What looks like it could be a narrow road between the granite on the left & right is actually a volcanic dike.This dike is formed when molten rock seeps into a crack in the rock, sometimes allowing molten rock to open a vent elsewhere. The overlying granite has been removed by glaciers leaving it exposed. You may see this while going cross country in the Sumitt City Canyon.
