Camel Peak

Camel Peakis a pictographic granite landscape formed by a  combination of granite peak cluster and columnar peaks. The columnar peak on the right hand side resembles the head and neck of a camel while on the left hand side the peak clusters standing side by side look like the camels body, hence the its name. It was formed when the original granite body was cut by two sets of vertical fractures (joints) and then underwent deep weathering, runoff erosion and gravitational collapse.
