Tags: Mountain Range.

The Cathedral Range is a mountain range immediately to the South of Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite National Park USA. It is a beautiful range sculpted by glaciers out of granite. The tops of the peaks in the range were above the level of the highest glaciation and are therefore uneroded and spire-like. The range is named after Cathedral Peak which is shaped like a cathedral because of this differential erosion.
