Rocks At The Top
Usually when you see a field of rocks like this, you see something
higher nearby where the rocks came from. When the forces of erosion, ice, water, and wind break a large
formation apart, the pieces fall by the force of gravity. So, it's not uncommon to see a field of rocks
below a cliff, for example. But where did these rocks come from? This hill was the highest place around.
Our guess is that there once was something much higher nearby. These rocks are the erosion residue from the once much higher hill itself. Or, that a nearby volcano vaulted them here during an erupution.
