Scenic Sunday - Monument Rock

One of the local hikes is Monument Rock, and I thought I'd share some photographs I took there on a hike last fall for this Scenic Sunday post. As with most trails in this area, it winds through woods.

You glimpse Monument Rock itself fairly often.

Near its base is a pond (I've posted a picture of the rock reflected in this pond here in the past).

The rock is fairly tall, and much wider than it is narrow. There's a tree growing right against it on one side.

I liked the reflections and these tree roots.

I also liked the shape of this tree.

And finally, the remains of this root cellar show that you can't get away from graffiti anywhere.
