Boulders in the Woods
After our brief excursion to Ashness Bridge, et. all we progressed through Barrowdale to the Bowder Stone. The area is known for its large boulders scattered throughout the forests thought to have been deposited there by water flows after the Ice Age. The most famous of these if the Bowder Stone. The stone weighs about 2,000 tons and is seemingly precariously placed on a tilt. There is a later attached to one side of the stone so that visitors can climb to the top which seems like an exciting prospect until you get to the top and realize that there is no flat place to stand or sit.
