Anywhere from 85-120 million years ago magma from an arc of erupting volcanoes solidified deep within the Earth’s crust and began the process of creating the Sierra Nevada. Tectonic plates began to shift, causing the range to uplift and reach its current elevation roughly 5 million years ago. Millions of years after the mountains began to rise, glaciers formed and retreated in a series of ice ages, helping to carve out the peaks and valleys of the landscape.
