Survey--Delaware Counties' Stone Columns and more Part II Manitou Stones

There were a few Manitou Stones on the property, but not an abundance of them. The picture below is of the largest one I found. My staff, marked in increments of one foot, showed it to be about three feet high. My dog Jaeda Bear is pictured next to the stone.



The side view of he Manitou Stone below shows it to be about two feet thick.

Below is a cluster of several Manitou Stones. The large stone in front looks like a Manitou Stone, but it is not.


I imagine the large stone embedded in front was placed there by a glacier a long time ago, or by some other Earth moving event.


The picture above was taken on the other side of the large stone. The two stones on the bottom left are Manitou Stones. Both have begun tilting. I imagine long ago the area between the two Manitous and the larger stone was electrified.
