Dispatch 08: Glacier Point

I have no answer for the question of glacier & granite. From 8000 feet, the rest of Half Dome can be seen scattered along the carpetless floor where the ice giant worked its way down the hall its slow-time creep created.

The broken dome remains as a symbol of the power of ice; its shattered & scattered boulders that of fire.

Above all this, yet still below a clouded blue sky, the peaks of the Sierra smile at their capacity for violence. What they witnessed, their shadowy scars also retell.
