Description

This is a mess. Look at those rocks! They're tossed as though a young boy giant was playing with them and threw them in a heap.

OK, but... a giant little boy didn't throw them. They got there from the bowl to the left.

By the way, I forgot to mention, at high tide this is all under water, not far, but yeah.

So how did the rocks get over there? Keep in mind they weight tons each. they are big rocks.

Well the waves moved them.

Not quite.

They "floated over." But rocks dont float! Yes they do if they are floating on the rock form of water. Ice. The ice forms and probably is the same ice that broke the boulders off the main in the first place. The boulder sits on the ice and THEN a wave and wind (which is just a thinner version of water) hit it full force and the boulder floats across the ice and crashes into the rock pile.
