Five hundred million years of geologic history brought Yosemite Valley into being--from a region lying beneath an ancient sea to a valley characterized by sheer walls and flat floor. Weather and erosion continue to shape the valley.
One of Yosemite's most well known features is El Capitan. Its sheer granite wall is the destination of countless experienced rock climbers.
