184. Crescent lake, in the Yosemite National park. The morainal dam which 



has formed the lake is shown, the outlet being in the middle, where the 

 driftwood has accumulated (No. 110). 



185. View from near Sentinel dome, in the Yosemite National park, showing the 



canyon of Tenaya creek and the roches-moutonnees-like surface of the 

 plateau north of Yosemite valley (no negative). 



186. Rock basin in biotite-granite. Ridge south of Morrison creek, in the Yo- 



semite National park. The diameter of the basin is about 1 meter and its 

 depth about 15 centimeters. They are formed by atmospheric agency 

 without aid of running water (no negative). 



187. Showing the weathering of biotite-granite on ridge south of Morrison creek, 



a branch of the Tuolumne river, in the Yosemite National park. On the 

 boulder to the left may be seen several little rock basins which by growth 

 have coalesced (no negative).

Merced river, in the Yosemite National park (No. 112). 



189. Exfoliating granite on slope northwest of Grouse lake, in the Yosemite Na- 



tional park. The different steps formed by the layers are all glaciated, 

 showing that the exfoliation took place before the final retreat of the ice 

 (No. 111). 



190. Exfoliating granite on slope northwest of Grouse lake, in the Yosemite Na- 



tional park. The large boulders in the foreground are polished on their 

 upper surface and have been fractured and moved by frost and heat into 

 their present position since the retreat of the ice (No. 109). 



191. Boulder of an igneous pudding-stone on north ridge of Yosemite valley. It 



is composed of nodules of diorite cemented by biotite-granite. The meas 

 ure is 25 centimeters long (no negative).
