The rock in this area is noted for it's superb coloring in shades of white, yellow, orange, red, and brown, which is composed of Dolomite and Marble - basically metamorphosed limestone.  The age is Pre-cambrian making it some of the oldest rock in the Sierra.

The rock is very loose, and caution must be exercised when climbing it's routes.
