It’s a luxury to have such a big “home” and “backyard”. Feels like in a sci-fi movie.

We seem to find obscure places. 🙂

Ah! They are from the Ancestral Pueblo and at least 800 yrs old.

Hope not! Thanks for an encouraging reminder that Spring is right around the corner.

I am so sorry to hear about your wife, Tom. I hope you find the solace you seek when out in the wild places.

Also, thank you for the info about the stone block. Makes sense.

The rectangular stone may have been used as a sight stone to align our ancestors with another similar stone that defines a ancient path. We have found these here even in Maine in Camden Hills State Park close to Penobscot Bay where I live. I hope to get back to long distance backpacking in Sept. eyeing a SoBo on the Long Trail which I hope I can spend October following the Kodachrome foliage party. My wife died a month ago and I am finally free of living under the mantle of her cancer.
