Fossil Falls Northern Ca

Post by Geoepicenter on Sat Feb 23, 2008 11:29 pm

I thought I would share a photo I shot at Fossil Falls in No. Ca, What you are looking at is a magma flow that once flowed over glacial ice many moons ago, and as the frozen tundra was enveloped by molten basaltic rock, the ice began to boil in a circular fashion thus creating these cylindrical patterns in the rock.

I would have loved to see that first hand.

The shot required me putting a rope around my waist, and tying to a boulder. It was worth the eerie feeling I had while shooting.
