An oddly shaped limestone mass sits atop a pedestal of eroded mudstone. The gently sloping ground on which it stands is slowly eroding away. Behind, in the middle ground, pinyon pines flank the beginning of steeper slopes rising toward a shale and mudstone mountain.
Intimate, closeup view of a light-colored limestone plaque held aloft by a pedestal of slowly eroding mudstone. Behind, in close proximity, rises a massive hill of multi-hued clay and mudstone. The sky above is faultless blue.
