Some views from different angles of the latest rock quarry. Rock from here is being used on the new pipe line to Trouser Lake and other construction projects I would assume.
Interestingly enough this quarry was originally used as a sand pit, then this bloody big rock appeared as the sand dissipated.
This area has an interesting geological history, a gorge and small brook run down from the height of land to the west. I would guess that historically ice gouged it's way down to the coast then the brook followed, larger back then, depositing sand and soil leading to a well wooded area with lots of moss and lichen and berries and many other species of flora. This then attracts birds and wildlife which then attracts humans. Oh well.
