Glacier Point, Yosemite – Did you know that trees grow on granite here! If you are a geology nerd, this is actually pretty cool. Basically, moss starts to grow on the granite (which is a straight-up rock, mind you), and that eventually builds up so much that small plants can grow on it, and then one day there is enough soil and plants for trees’ roots to bear down and grab the granite. This is how there are so many trees in Yosemite © Picture by TJR Studios.
