'Look! It actually does snow here!'
This landscape is far more accustomed to extreme heat, having been formed by the eroded remnants of an ancient volcano. About 23 million years ago, the San Andreas fault split a volcanic field near present-day Lancaster into two pieces, and the Pacific Plate headed north carrying the pinnacles, which have now traveled 195 miles and remain on the move via plate tectonics.
— paved the way for President Barack Obama in 2013 to declare Pinnacles California’s newest national park.Courtesy of Gavin Emmons “There was enough snow in the shadows to allow me to make this tidgy snowman during this morning’s wander,” Instagram user Tim Huntington wrote in a post. The small, unlikely snowman stands in the foreground, with the park’s iconic red-gray spires artfully blurred in the distance.
When Moorer — who has been with Pinnacles since 2021 — showed up to work last Wednesday morning, he saw the park dusted with snow for the first time. He snapped a photo and sent it to family members on the East Coast, just to say, “Look! It actually does snow here!”
