Cool outcrop near Twin Sisters (City of Rocks, Idaho) exposes the interplay of two granites.

Check out the Twin Sisters area at City of Rocks National Reserve with geology professor Shawn Willsey. Here we investigate a spectacular outcrop about 0.5 miles southeast of the Twin Sisters and right next to the historic California Trail. Much like the Twin Sisters themselves, this fascinating location exposes the relationship between the Archean (2.5 billion years old) granite and the much, much young (28 million year old) granite of the Almo Pluton.
