This one was spared

If you have ever gone hiking with me, you are most likely aware of my intense distaste of unnecessary cairns.  They drive me crazy!  If I come across them while hiking they are quickly demolished with great zeal and much gusto.  Some of you have observed this behavior.

I've been doing a study up in Tuolumne the past month and at one of my observation sites, I ran across this.


Even more inappropriate than a cairn.  However, I couldn't do it.  It was art, it was talent, it was awesome!  It was spared.

Two days later when I returned to continue my observations, it had been knocked down and the larger base rock had cracked in two.
