My Column: State Line Hawk Watch
A view of State Line Lookout and the Hudson River beyond in Alpine. By Jim WrightSpecial to The Record |…
On Monday, I asked: What is this, and where is this?
The answer is a stacked pile of rocks just off the start of Parnell's Path in the Celery Farm.
It is a cairn, as folks suggested — defined as "a heap of rocks piled up as a memorial or landmark" by Merriam-Webster.
Congrats to all who I.D.'d this correctly.
High Mountain, by the way, is a cairn capital. Will post some pix of several soon.
