The first rock pile:
There is a white rock nestled in the tree roots.
And then, there was another rock pile and ... ooh! what's that beyond?
First we give this pile # 2 a closer look:
It also has a white stone in the interior:
And a grey quartz on its perimeter (the pile is slightly rectangular and the quartz is on the right hand corner):closer:
Then, the mound! It is a rectangular mound:
Note the manitou-like stone leaning over, in the middle:
Here is a view in towards the inevitable hollow, passing beside that interesting stone:
I think this is a hollow that no one would blame on vandals:
The argument against vandalism is: this L-shaped hole is deliberate and shows no sighs of being the result of someone digging a hole into the pile. On the contrary, it shows tidy arrangements of small rocks in spite of severe damage. Also, there was a small white rock (against the tree):
Look at the context of this mound:
FFC was looking at other details. He pointed out several other rock piles buried under leaves:
and curious rock shapes.
How bout this pile and it's white rock:
closer:
This one had a lot of structure:
He also called attention to a linear feature that was at the top of the site (which we saw near the bowl on the way in, but ignored not seeing that it was a separate structure). This linear feature ended below near some of the rock piles. It had a few white rocks at the end:
It ended above, looking towards a distant horizon
We'll have to "Stupid Sheet the wall" to see where it is pointing.
Pretty good "10 minutes". One of the closest sites to the road, that I can think of.
