| Sunset on North Lake in the eastern Sierra Nevada, autumn. Eastern Sierra Photos. Image ID: 26054 Location: Bishop Creek Canyon Sierra Nevada Mountains, California, USA | Star trails and alpenglow on the Sierra Nevada, Paiute Peak, before sunrise, reflected in North Lake in the Sierra Nevada. Eastern Sierra Image. Image ID: 26053 Location: Bishop Creek Canyon Sierra Nevada Mountains, California, USA | Devil's Postpile, a spectacular example of columnar basalt. Once molten and under great pressure underground, the lava that makes up Devil's Postpile cooled evenly and slowly, contracting and fracturing into polygonal-sided columns. The age of the formation is estimated between 100 and 700 thousand years old. Sometime after the basalt columns formed, a glacier passed over the formation, cutting and polishing the tops of the columns. The columns have from three to seven sides, varying because of differences in how quickly portions of the lava cooled. Professional stock photos of Eastern Sierra.

Image ID: 23104 Location: Bodie State Historical Park, California, USA | Tufa towers rise from Mono Lake, with the Eastern Sierra visible in the distance. Tufa towers are formed when underwater springs rich in calcium mix with lakewater rich in carbonates, forming calcium carbonate (limestone) structures below the surface of the lake. The towers were eventually revealed when the water level in the lake was lowered starting in 1941 Photograph of Eastern Sierra. Image ID: 26983 Location: Mono Lake, California, USA |

| Mt. Whitney is the highest point in the contiguous United States with an elevation of 14,505 feet (4,421 m). It lies along the crest of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. Composed of the Sierra Nevada batholith granite formation, its eastern side (seen here) is quite steep. It is climbed by hundreds of hikers each year. Eastern Sierra Photos.
