Wondrous formations at the Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park
From Wikipedia:
The park's visually interesting terrain and proximity to Hollywood have made it a frequently used filming location since the 1930s... Producer Stanley Bergerman chose it to represent Tibet in the film Werewolf of London (1935). It became popular as a setting in Westerns in the 1940s and 1950s, followed by numerous television series.
The prominent rock formation is featured as fictional alien settings in four episodes of the original late 1960s Star Trek series, from which it gained the nickname "Kirk's Rock". The location was subsequently used the same way in the films Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986) and Star Trek (2009), and episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek Voyager, and Star Trek: Enterprise. Star Trek: Picard features scenes set and filmed at Vasquez Rocks, making it the first time the rocks have been seen as themselves in the franchise.
History: These rock formations were formed by rapid erosion during uplift about 25 million years ago, and then later exposed by uplift activity along the San Andreas Fault.
